U of C study of vitamin D and covid with black people..

[Squirtle]

Vitamin D is essential to all human functions and most of us living outside of Africa have low vitamin d. It’s not surprising that it weakens your immune system heavily.

All of my family pretty much takes supplements, I started taking them after being diagnosed with incredibly low vitamin d levels to the point I had severe depression.

If you’re feeling symptoms of depression - check your vitamin d levels and start taking supplementation. I put a close friend onto this and it changed his whole life.

Yo this was my exact situation as well. Crazy how important vitamin D is

You can also get it in fatty fish
Egg yolk (eat the whole egg tho not just the yolk)
fortified orange juice

that + going outside regularly, should help people out imo.

remember your body needs to eat food food, don't just take supplements and think you're ok.

Everything is supposed to wok in tandem with each other in order to achieve maximum success.

I’m in Florida and go walking daily and I think that’s played a big factor in why I hardly get sick anymore.

We should all take a good multivitamin with our breakfast each morning

Going to GNC right now for some D3.

I keep my zinc in my desk at work.

Just ran out to Walgreens and picked some up. Good looking out.

The fact Vit. D is just now starting to get mainstream recognition as an important marker of health goes to show how behind mainstream recommendations are.

If your 25-hydroxyvitamin D isn't near 50 ng/dl, you need to supplement.

I take 2,000 IUs every morning. I have been doing this for years.

Mentioned this in my other vaccine thread

Government should have mandated Vitamin D supplements, would have saved so much more lives.

Not really.
Having a healthy immune system and ensuring you're getting a healthy daily dose of all vitamins and minerals is key to a healthy life.
Vitamin D deficiency is the issue here, African-Americans are likely to have that deficiency due to environmental and social factors related to our food and overall wellbeing.

A National Health Service would have saved lives. Instructing people to eat vegetables at least twice a day and drink 32 oz of water would have saved a couple of lives.

A study telling what we already know.

I wonder if the Covid scaredy cats will acknowledge the study (I doubt it)

I'm surprised the Billinda Gates Foundation and other organisations have stopped this study being published (I do await the smear campaign).

Lol. You didn't actually read the article or study, did you?
Being healthy means you have better outcomes from disease.

Taking vitamins will not prevent a virus from killing you, being healthier just lower your chances of dying from complications related to the disease.

low vitamin D is basically the only negative my blood work ever returns.
figured it's from never going out in the sun during the work week

If you managed to work outdoors and eat healthy, you will be in pristine shape.

People shamed @thekingsmen, and others, when he was promoting supplements at the beginning of the pandemic.. Even though his other takes are a little out there concerning covid. But when the "hotep" brothers were pushing black people to load up on vitamins, they were scorned to death. Now all of a sudden, we're seeing capitalist america themselves pushing the need for vitamins and probiotics

You're referring to the people who claimed vitamins would cure COVID?
No. The information has not changed since the beginning. Being healthier =/= COVID-proof. Having a well-rounded diet and ensuring you get all of your vitamins makes you less likely to suffer the ill effects or die from the disease than a person who is vitamin deficient or otherwise ill.

You can't "boost" your immune system beyond a basic level.

So basically the same thing us "hotep" folks were saying from the beginning about getting sunlight daily after they put yall on lockdown and made you sit in the house.

Social distancing did not mean staying inside the house.

The dominant society didn't want to give black people the keys to why we were hard hit by covid.. We're deficient in a lot of critical vitamins and minerals.. Really has nothing to do with anything specific to the black race. Most of the other black countries outside of america did pretty well against this particular virus..

Scientists have been saying long before the COVID pandemic started that Black people in the U.S. are at a higher risk of death and complications from common illnesses as well as pandemics.

The Black countries that did better than the U.S. also implemented a variety of social-distancing measures, contact tracing, quarantine, and other health measures.

You don't say. I never said otherwise.
