LONG COVID: Symptoms, Root Causes, and Support Options

For many people, COVID didn’t end when the infection cleared. Fatigue, brain fog, shortness of breath, heart symptoms, and chronic inflammation can linger for months—or longer—leaving patients frustrated and often unheard. This condition, known as long COVID, affects multiple systems in the body and is still frequently overlooked in conventional care.

In this video, Dr. Mark Stengler breaks down what long COVID is, why it’s so complex, and the leading theories behind its root causes—including chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, and viral reactivation. He also shares the integrative therapies he uses in clinical practice to help patients restore energy, support immune balance, and recover more fully over time.

If you’re struggling with lingering symptoms after COVID—or advocating for someone who is—this video offers clarity, validation, and a more hopeful, science-informed path forward.
