Multi-System, Pacing-Respectful Recovery for the Biology That Never Reset.

A physician-supervised, multi-system programme for adults who had COVID (confirmed or strongly suspected) and never returned to pre-COVID baseline. Layered mitochondrial and energetic support, cognitive and nervous system regeneration, gut barrier and inflammation work, plus the lifestyle and pacing layer that determines recovery trajectory. For the multi-system reality where investigations come back "normal" but you know you are different.

Doctor-led. Diagnostically gated. Pune and Mumbai.

HOW IT WORKS

Long COVID is not one illness. It is a syndrome with multiple overlapping phenotypes: fatigue/PEM, cognitive/neurological, dysautonomia, gut-and-immune, sleep architecture. Most clients have features across several.

Layer 1: Mitochondrial and Energetic Support.

Targeted IV therapy (Myer's Cocktail + NAD+ Vitality) restores mitochondrial cofactors. SS-31 (Elamipretide) added where mitochondrial dysfunction is prominent (cardiolipin stabiliser, reduces ROS). Thymosin Alpha-1 for the immune dysregulation underlying post-viral fatigue.

Layer 2: Cognitive and Neurological Support.

Semax and Selank plus GHK-Cu where appropriate, combined with autonomic regulation work. Mechanisms include neuroinflammation, vascular changes and dysautonomia.

Layer 3: Gut Barrier and Systemic Inflammation.

ARS-CoV-2 directly affects intestinal tissue via ACE2 receptors. BPC-157 and Thymosin Alpha-1 support mucosal repair and immune balance. Gut Barrier Protocol coordinates.

Layer 4: Diagnostic Precision.

Long-COVID phenotyping workup, inflammatory markers, micronutrient status, autonomic assessment, and red-flag screening for specialist referral (myocarditis, pulmonary fibrosis, exertional syncope).

 

THE LIFESTYLE LAYER

Lifestyle factors are arguably more consequential in long COVID than in any other protocol.

  • Pacing, the most important concept: PEM is real and pushing through it sets recovery back.
  • Sleep: where post-viral recovery actually happens.
  • Nutrition: adequate protein, anti-inflammatory pattern, targeted supplementation.
  • Reinfection prevention: each reinfection risks setback.
  • Nervous system: breathwork, parasympathetic-supporting practices where dysautonomia is part of the picture.

 

PROTOCOL-RELATED FAQ

Q. How do I know if I have long COVID?

A. The working clinical definition is symptoms that began with or after COVID, persist beyond 3 months, and are not explained by another diagnosis. Common features: persistent fatigue, post-exertional malaise, brain fog, dysautonomia, gut changes, sleep disruption. Diagnosis is clinical.

Q. Can long COVID be cured?

A. Honest answer: there is no guaranteed cure. What is achievable for many is meaningful recovery over months to a few years. Some reach near-baseline; some recover partially; a minority have persistent features. Earlier intervention, better trajectory. Pushing-based recovery worsens long COVID.

Q. What if I am not sure I had COVID?

A. Many Indians had COVID without formal diagnosis. The protocol applies to clients with a strong clinical history of post-viral symptom onset even without confirmed test results.

Q. How long will recovery take?

A. It varies enormously. Some clients see meaningful change within months; others require longer time horizons.

Q. Who should not do this protocol?

A. Anyone with acute or unstable COVID sequelae requiring hospital care; significant untreated post-COVID cardiac complications (e.g. myocarditis); pulmonary fibrosis requiring pulmonology management; pregnancy or breastfeeding; clients seeking to bypass appropriate specialist evaluation.

 

Long COVID Treatment in India, A Multi-System Recovery Approach

Indian research shows long COVID prevalence around 37% in some cohorts, with neuropsychiatric features persisting up to 2.5 years post-infection. ALIV's Post-COVID / Long COVID Recovery Protocol is a multi-system, pacing-respectful programme. Doctor-led at Pune and Mumbai.

 

What the Protocol Includes

A 4-layer programme: mitochondrial and energetic support (Myer's + NAD+ Vitality IV, SS-31, Tα1), cognitive and neurological support (Semax, Selank, GHK-Cu), gut barrier and systemic inflammation work (BPC-157, Tα1), and a diagnostic backbone including red-flag screening.

 

How ALIV Coordinates with Specialist Care

Integrative. Red flags route to cardiology or pulmonology first. ALIV coordinates where post-COVID complications require it.

 

Who Should Consider This Protocol

Adults with persistent post-COVID symptoms; PEM; brain fog or dysautonomia; gut or sleep changes that began with or after COVID.

 

Why Choose ALIV for Long COVID Care in India

Doctor-led, multi-system, pacing-respectful, integrative not alternative.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the protocol?

Long COVID recovery is sustained engagement. Initial phase typically 6 months; ongoing maintenance reviewed quarterly.

Can I do this if I have post-COVID heart symptoms?

With cardiology coordination. Suspected myocarditis requires cardiology workup first.

Will I need IV drips forever?

No. Structured initial IV phase; maintenance cadence reviewed based on response.

Is reinfection going to set me back?

Each COVID reinfection risks setback. Vaccination is individualised; mask use in high-risk settings is sensible.

Can my family member with long COVID also do this?

Yes, the protocol is built for individual adult presentations.

Get Answers To Your Questions

IV Drip is a simple and gentle method that infuses vital fluids, medications, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream. It's a quick and comfortable way to get what your body needs.

IV drip therapy delivers immediate hydration, revitalization, and recuperation by providing a physiological boost directly to your cells. This advanced preventive healthcare measure ensures optimal nutrient concentrations, potentially preventing health issues.

Oral supplements may not provide optimal bio availability as a large portion of the nutrients can be metabolised or excreted during digestion. On the other hand IV Drips ensures 100% bioavailability, rapid and efficient cellular uptake, higher doses and better results. Moreover, higher doses of certain nutrients are needed to cause certain effects in the body, which is not always possible to obtain via supplements.

Number of sessions required depends on the therapy in question, the desired results and each individual's lifestyle & physiological factors. On an average most people opt for 8 to 15 sessions. Each IV Drip session at ALIV typically lasts between 45 minutes to 90 mins depending on the combination being given. Booster shots last anywhere between 5 to 25 minutes. Results may vary from person to person, but many clients report feeling increased energy levels, overall well-being and enhanced metabolism after just one session. The results last for anywhere between 1 - 6 months after regular Phase 1 and maintenance sessions. Long-term benefits include increased resilience against age-related diseases and enhanced physical and cognitive functions.

Nothing more than a small pinch. The procedure involves a needle for IV insertion, topical local anaesthesia and our well experienced nursing staff makes the discomfort minimal. Moreover, the needle is used only for insertion. Our advanced practices make use of flexible silicon inlets to deliver the nutrients in your blood post the needle prick so most individuals do not feel a thing!

Most individuals experience no major side effects. Some minor side effects during the therapy may include dizziness, nausea, slight irritation at the site of injection. They subside almost instantaneously after a few minutes. After the first few sessions when your body gets used to taking these elements in the IV form, most individuals do not feel any side effects if proper precautions and instructions are followed.

Yes, the therapy is minimally invasive, allowing most clients to resume their daily activities immediately. We recommend taking it easy for a couple of hours
