VITAMIN D SUPPLEMENTATION REDUCES THE RISK OF RESPIRATORY INFECTION [HINT: THAT'S THE COVID-19]


This should not come as a secret or a surprise to any visitors to this site.  Unfortunately, Former CDC Director, Tom Frieden was interviewed by John Roberts, long-time CBS Anchor.  The problem is that Roberts leads the questioning and the answers that Frieden gives are standard: stay at home, quarantine a person infected, etc., etc., etc., ad infinitum.  Is he talking to 6-year-olds?  Anyone old enough, from a 9-year-old child to an octogenarian, knows that if you're sick with anything that you stay home.  Now it is true that though high school kids may know this they don't heed this warning because they've got friends to attend to, they've got games and projects that need their hands on.  So it's true that some people need to have this message droned into their head, but if you're at all conscientious you're not going to want to get people sick and sabotage their productivity.  

So take your daily vitamin D for the reasons that Dr. Frieden states here,
Vitamin D supplementation reduces the risk of respiratory infectionregulates 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 COVID-19. Adequate Vitamin D may potentially provide some modest protection for vulnerable populations. 
Frieden is downplaying the effectiveness of vitamin D because as a former government agent, he has to stay on the plantation narrative of "shelter in place," "accept martial law," "self-quarantine," "wear a mask," "wash your hands," etc., etc., etc.  

Check out what Dr. John Cannell, owner of the Vitamin D Council site, has to say about what vitamin D does for you.  Then check out what Creighton University professor, Robert P. Heaney says about the protective effects of vitamin D, which go way beyond strengthening your immune system.  Need more evidence?  Scroll down this page about 2/3 to find other vitamin D experts to see what they say about what it does and how it can restore your health.  Like I said, I've covered the powerful effects of vitamin D several times.  It's too important a supplement not to have in your daily arsenal.  

I've had good results with this brand.  And the price is not bad either.
