COVID-19, FLU & RSV

Dear Patients,

There is currently high overall respiratory illness activity in New Jersey. 
In my continued efforts to utilize appropriate measures regarding COVID-19, Flu and RSV, while still assisting you to maintain your good health, I will continue performing appointments as phone consultations (telemedicine) for your convenience. I will submit all prescriptions, new and renewal, and medicinal marijuana physician statements (prescriptions) on your behalf after I speak with you telephonically. We are open for office visits including IV therapies and HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy), however please consider the following questions prior to coming in for an appointment: 

Have you been in contact with anyone that has been diagnosed with COVID-19, Flu or RSV?
• Have you been instructed by another health care professional to self-isolate in the past 10 days? 
• Do you have any of the following symptoms: fever, fatigue, headache, cough, shortness of breath, loss of taste and smell, stuffy, runny nose?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, please contact my office at (201) 503-0007 or at staff@centerfornutrition.com to schedule a phone call (telemedicine) visit. 

I encourage the following guidelines as outlined by the CDC: 
• Get vaccinated.
• The best way to prevent the illness is to avoid being exposed to the virus. Practice social distancing. The respiratory viruses are spread from person-to-person through the air following coughing and sneezing.
• Cover coughs and sneezes.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Avoid contact with anyone who is sick.
• Avoid contact with elderly and immunocompromised individuals, as you may be symptomless but still carry a respiratory virus and can infect them.
• Use good hygiene and frequent hand washing or applications of hand sanitizer.
• Clean and disinfect surfaces. Disinfectant cleaners need to be left on unwiped for 10 minutes.
• Wear a face mask to protect yourself and others (KN-95 or the N-95 masks are the best).    

In addition to the recommendations above, I recommend trying to keep your body healthy in general during this time:
• Get plenty of sleep (8 hours per night).
• Drink plenty of water.
• Use a warm steam vaporizer in your bedroom.
• Go out and get some fresh air, sunshine and exercise daily.
• Reduce stress as much as possible.
• Some of the best nutrients that help our immune system are: a daily multi-vitamin with minerals, Zinc, Vitamin C, quercetin, and Vitamin D.

For more information about COVID-19, FLU and RSV, please visit the CDC website.

In good health,
Gary Klingsberg, D.O.


PHILOSOPHY

For over thirty-five years the Center for Nutrition and Preventive Medicine has been northern New Jersey's leading alternative medical practice. Our office operates under the premise that the combination of both medical and what are currently considered alternative medical approaches to patient care are more effective than either approach alone.

At the Center for Nutrition and Preventive Medicine nutritional therapy is a treatment of choice along with Alternative Medicine, with the use of medications reduced or eliminated so as to avert their unwanted side effects.

We have vast experience over thirty years of prescribing Bio-identical Hormone Therapy (BHRT) on fixed and cyclical regimens to best suit the needs of our patients.  

While employing our therapies to remain youthful and vibrant, many individuals also look for ways to retain or recapture an outwardly youthful and vibrant facial appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles, especially on the face, can cause patients to look older than they actually are. Our aesthetic therapies include: PRP Facials, PRP for hair loss, dermal fillers and Botox.

We offer the intravenous administration of nutrients and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) which may minimize the toxic effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy regimens. 

We have been compassionately prescribing Medical Marijuana for qualified patients for several years. It fits well with our holistic and alternative approach to the care of our patients that we have always taken.

While the prescription of drugs is important for the treatment of some disorders, we prefer to address these problems through nutritional and alternative medical means where possible.

Patients of all ages, from childhood to old age have benefited from our care. 

Some of the more common problems treated at the Center are:
  • Menopause  
  • Andropause (male menopause)  
  • Aging and the appearance of aging
  • Hair loss
  • Wounds and injuries healed more rapidly with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
  • Post-concussion traumatic brain injury
  • Toxic metal exposure (mercury, lead, arsenic)
  • Anxiety
  • Cancer
  • Food and environmental allergies 
  • Overweight and obesity
  • Hypertension  
  • High Cholesterol
  • Heart Disease  
  • Peripheral Vascular Disease
  • Parkinson's Disease  
  • Asthma  
  • Digestive Disorders  
  • Candida
