COVID-19 Updates

Colorado Integrative Healthcare is still open for business.

We are operating on a limited schedule and are not having staff in the office unless necessary,
so please call ahead to schedule appointments or even to pick up supplements. If you need to
see Crissy or Alysha, we are still taking appointments. We are still available medical visits for lab
work, hormone therapy, medical weight loss, injections, etc. We have postponed non-medical
procedures until after the non-essential procedure guidelines ends (ie, Crysokin, Vampire
Facelift, etc).


For the safety of staff and patients we are:

  • Asking any sick or at-risk staff to stay home

  • Asking patients if they have had a fever in the last 24 hours or if they have experienced any flu-like symptoms during the previous 7 days to please reschedule

  • Spacing out visits as much as possible and patients have the option to wait in their car until we are ready for them

  • If you are only needing nutraceuticals, we can meet you curbside with those or mail them to you

 

4 WAYS WE, AS BIOTE PROVIDERS, CAN HELP BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEMS

 

  1. Hormone Optimization: Hormone Optimization of testosterone helps improve sleep, which has been shown in studies to help improve the immune system. Hormone optimization using the BioTE Method may help reduce anxiousness, thereby improving immune function.

  2. Thyroid Optimization: Thyroid hormones play an essential role in both innate and adaptive immune responses. The immune system includes cells that protect our bodies from foreign antigens and microbes (bacteria and viruses). Innate immunity offers immediate protection against these microbes through our white blood cells.

  3. Nutraceuticals to help support and enhance a healthy immune system.

    • Zinc for respiratory illness (IODINE+) - Specifically, zinc has been shown to reduce the severity of respiratory illness. Zinc improves the integrity of respiratory cells, protecting them from inflammation and infection. One capsule of BioTE’s IODINE+ contains 10mg of zinc.

    • Vitamin D for an improved immune response (ADK 5 & 10) - Vitamin D is also important in maintaining the innate and adaptive immune responses. If your patients have a deficiency in vitamin D, they may have an increase in susceptibility to infection.

    • Probiotics for overall immune system health. Our gastrointestinal tract (GI) is important to our overall immune system health. Probiotics can improve GI health by up-regulating immune function. The combination of BioTE’s MULTI-STRAIN PROBIOTICS 20B + and BACILLUS COAGULANS is an excellent choice for boosting the immune system, especially during this stressful time.

  4. Peptides: Immune boosting prescription peptides constitute one of the most promising classes of physiologically active substances and are novel candidates as immune boosters and antiviral agents

    • Thymosin alpha-1 (Zadaxin) is a peptide originally isolated from the thymus gland as the compound responsible for restoring immune function. It enhances the Natural Killer (NK) system and stimulates the immune response by inducing stem cells and augmenting the production of new immune cells.

    • Selank, a heptapeptide that is an analogue of human Tuftsin, a fragment of immunoglobulin, has potent anti-viral capabilities. It has been shown to have anti-viral effects on over six different types of viruses, including helping prevent respiratory viruses such as Influenza and helping fight outbreaks of viruses such as herpes and CMV.
