Reduce Risk with Vitamin D March 23, 2021Health NewsOff

Tom Frieden, MD article on Fox News:
“Vitamin D may strengthen the immune system, particularly of people whose Vitamin D levels are low.”

“Vitamin D supplementation reduces the risk of respiratory infection, regulates cytokine production and can limit the risk of other viruses such as influenza.

A respiratory infection can result in cytokine storms – a vicious cycle in which our inflammatory cells damage organs throughout the body – which increase mortality for those with [sickness]. Adequate Vitamin D may potentially provide some modest protection for vulnerable populations.

“This is especially important for people who are Vitamin D deficient – and, surprisingly, that might include more than 40 percent of US adults. People who live in the northern part of the U.S. are at greater risk of deficiency.”

Get Vitamin D3 with K2

Vitamin D frees up calcium. K2 is like a traffic cop, helping calcium move out of the arteries into bones.

Here’s how much Vitamin D3 I take

We are taking 10,000 IU per day typically. If we feel like we might be getting sick, we ramp up significantly to 50,000 IU or more, per day, for three days.

Dose: Typically at this time of year, most people need 5,000 IU to 10,000 IU per day. If you have not been supplementing, you are probably deficient. T

Everyone needs to supplement. If you get D3 drops, you can easily give it to the whole family, 1,000 IU for the little ones. More info on Vitamin D3 Dosage.
