Then find some safe Omega 3 sources that don't have mercury in them as some fish now are unsafe to eat. Then if you use pink salt, be sure to add a drop of Lugol's 2% iodine to your water 1-2x a week. And really I'd do that even with iodized salt because they put such a tiny amount in there. |

The Gent User ID: 78844812 United Kingdom 10/29/2020 08:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just emailed this article to all family and friends. Long article. We take Vitamin D, Zinc, Magnesium, CQ10 and Vitamin C daily. Quoting: Proud Trump Supporter [link to www.dailymail.co.uk (secure)] Further proof that vitamin D could protect people from coronavirus emerged today after a study found deficiencies in the sunshine nutrient are four times as common among hospitalised patients. A mountain of research from around the world has painted a clear picture — infected patients who do not have enough vitamin D are more likely to end up in hospital. But scientists have so far been unable to pin down whether the nutrient deficiency is making people more vulnerable to the disease, or whether becoming unwell causes vitamin D levels to crash. Now Spanish experts have uncovered more evidence that suggests cheap vitamin D supplements - which cost as little as 6p per pill - could prove beneficial. Experts at the University of Cantabria in Santander looked at 216 Covid-19 patients at the Valdecilla Hospital in the northern Spanish city. Eighty-two per cent were deficient in vitamin D, whereas just 18 per cent had adequate levels of the nutrient - a fourfold difference. This was compared to the 47 per cent of people who were deficient in a control group who did not have the infection. Forty-four of the deficient Covid-19 patients were moved to ICU because their illness became worse and 37 needed mechanical ventilation — but their vitamin D levels were not any lower than the rest of the group. The other patients recovered without needing extra care. The Spanish researchers are now calling for coronavirus patients to be treated with vitamin D supplements 'since this approach might have beneficial effects' and there are few negative side effects. Although the research does not prove that deficiency led to them falling ill enough to need hospital care, it is the latest in a string of studies to yield similar results. Others have suggested that treating Covid-19 hospital patients with cheap vitamin D supplements boosts their chances of survival and speeds up recovery. But a lack of clinical trials, the gold standard of scientific research, has made it impossible for scientists to say for certain that they work. The overwhelming evidence pointing to vitamin D's benefit made UK researchers sit up and take notice earlier this month. A trial was launched by Queen Mary University of London, which will see 5,000 volunteers to take the vitamin for six months to see if it can protect people from catching, or falling very ill with, the disease. |

It's about time the MSM start mentioning this. I have myself remarked several on it in this forum and frankly I don't understand why Dr. Mercola hasn't been quoted extensively as he has published several articles on the subject of vit. D deficiency and its effects on COVID-19. And yet there will always be those who persist in branding him a cook! [link to articles.mercola.com (secure)] |

Brown and black skinned people would need more than 30-60 minutes, because melanin makes Vitamin D production less efficient.

Not true, BS and poppycock! If the sun shines and you can feel some warmth, it is effective even if it takes more time. You will get a tan if you do it long enough, so it certainly stimulates vitamin D production in your body! |
