Take your vitamin D

We’ve all heard it before. “Take your vitamins.” Whether coming from mom, spouse or doctor, it’s good advice. Among the various vitamins worthy of our attention, vitamin D is possibly the most important, particularly if you live north of the 37th parallel, and particularly if you want protection from Covid-19.

Daniel Horowitz, a writer for The Blaze, published an article titled “Studies show an aggressive vitamin D campaign could have prevented nearly all COVID deaths.

Whoa. Did you read that right? “All Covid deaths?” That’s crazy talk! Or is it?

Nope. (The real crazy talk is coming from the vaccine salesmen and big pharma fans.) “Follow the science” is a phrase we often hear. Well, let’s do that.

A recent German study concluded that a near-zero Covid mortality could be achieved if everybody has adequate vitamin D levels. Dozens of other studies show that vitamin D is a definitive difference maker for better Covid-19 outcomes.

These studies are mentioned by Daniel Horowitz, who uses Truth & Reason to eloquently expound on the findings. Here are some excerpts with some of my commentary:

What if we could simply have advised everyone last March to supplement with vitamin D (and active forms of D for those with absorption issues)? An endless stream of academic research demonstrates that not only would such an approach have worked much better than the vaccines, but rather than coming with sundry known and unknown negative side effects, it would have induced immeasurable positive side effects in the population for an array of other health concerns.

Good point. Vitamin D — unlike the vaccines — comes without negative side effects, and has the added benefit of increasing health and resistance to all sorts of disease and illness. Who wouldn’t want that? (Besides big pharma, of course, to whose profits vitamin D would be detrimental.)

According to a new German study, the difference between a level of 18 and one over 50 is the difference between life and death. Why has this education not gotten out to the public, especially now that we are in the winter season, when there is essentially no natural vitamin D from sunlight above the 37th parallel? Or is the obfuscation by design?

Each must answer that question for himself. I, for one, do believe that vitamin D is ignored precisely because it isn’t profitable.

With studies having shown zero correlation between lockdowns, masks, and vaccines and better COVID outcomes, there are now 142 studies vouching for the near-perfect correlation between higher vitamin D levels and better outcomes in COVID patients. It is likely the area of COVID-19 treatment research that has the most data behind it.

The left loves to pay lip service to the phrase “follow the science.” Yet they still by-and-large advocate lockdowns, masks and vaccines, and are largely ignorant of effective preventatives and treatments like vitamin D.

“At a threshold level of 30 ng/mL, mortality decreases considerably,” found the authors. “In addition, our analysis shows that the correlation for the combined datasets intersects the axis at approximately 50 ng/mL, which suggests that this vitamin D3 blood level may prevent any excess mortality.”…

It is beyond criminal that 20 months into this endeavor there has not been a national campaign percolating down to primary care physicians to test and supplement vitamin D levels accordingly. Think of the numerous benefits of vitamin D — from a healthier immune system and stronger bones to decreased risk for heart attack and cancer — as opposed to the risks of so many of the other things we are harnessing to “fight” this virus. Why on earth would vitamin D not become the new vaccine when it provides more protection against the virus than any vaccine?

Why? Because the real slogan of the left is to “follow the money, ” not the science.

[I]f one believes government can violate human rights and place mandates on one’s body to get a job, if the government made a rule that you have to get your D level over 50 in order to get a job, at least it would be following the science. Not only are people with high D levels better off personally, unlike vaccinated individuals with low D levels, they are much less likely to affect other people by spreading the disease because they have lower viral loads. A meta-analysis of 23 published studies containing 11,901 participants found that one who is vitamin D-deficient was 3.3 times more likely to get infected with SARS-CoV-2 than one who is not deficient.

Of course there is no place for vitamin D mandates, any more than there is for vaccine mandates. But our tax dollars would be infinitely better spent if used for vitamin D education programs, and to provide free vitamin D supplementation to all. I would go along with that. After I sell my big pharma stock. (Just kidding, I don’t have any.)

As a nation, we have been willing to harm our children, society, economy, mental health, and physical health with masks, lockdowns, shots, and experimental therapeutics that have zero or limited proven efficacy. Why would we not try an approach that comes with positive, rather than negative, side effects for our whole health?

Amen.
