More vitamin D



First regurgitating what written 1 month back as end this missive. Did not stress it much as most of folk were engineers at MIT etc. Now the claim is also made by MGH doc. Harmless waste of money if not as good. Suggest consider 60000 IU. Per week or 15 days of vitamin D3. Talk to doctor first. D sold as sachet once/month 60000 IU. Use it per week.

Overdoses not possible. AN ortho doc told me re medical education 40 years back, they wrote prescriptions for 500,000 IU per week! Alternately, remove shirt and sit in Sun in India (no shirt) for 30 min per day!

Talk to doc ASAP. Most of us are 65+ and need D3 fast!

Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to more severe cases of COVID …

D vitamin
The researchers also found a strong correlation between vitamin D levels and cytokine storm, which is a hyperinflammatory condition caused by an overactive immune system.


"Cytokine storm can severely damage lungs and lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome and death in patients," Ali Daneshkhah, a postdoctoral research associate at Northwestern's McCormick School of Engineering, said in a statement. "This is what seems to kill a majority of COVID-19 patients, not the destruction of the lungs by the virus itself. It is the complications from the misdirected fire from the immune system."
