I was pleasantly surprised when the former CDC chief, Dr. Tom Frieden said that Vitamin D can reduce the risk of infection from the coronavirus. He didn’t say some new drug produced by a major pharmaceutical company, but instead a vitamin our body naturally produces from sun exposure.
A few facts about Vitamin D: At least 40% of Americans are deficient in Vitamin D, even if you live in a sunny state.
-Most of us are substantially deficient in this vitamin and need some help with supplementation.
-Vitamin D reduces the risk of respiratory infections and can limit the risk of other infections like the normal influenza.
-The receptor sites that viruses attach to compete with Vitamin D. With those deficient in Vitamin D the viruses can attach to the host much easier and take hold.
For those interested in supplementing with Vitamin D, make sure that it’s D3 and K2 combined. These together help regulate proper calcium absorption in the body and help avoid improper calcium absorption.
We should be monitoring these Vitamin D levels normally, but now more than ever. If you need assistance, we measure these levels at our clinic as well as sell a few different versions of Vitamin D3 K2. Here to help! Stay healthy fam!
