A health organization, GrassrootsHealth, did a study on the relationship between vitamin D and strong immune systems. The researchers found that vitamin D played a very strong role in preventing viral infections, of multiple types, and when the subjects did become sick, vitamin D reduced the severity of the illness. The study also concluded that vitamin D helped improve prevention and symptoms of the coronavirus specifically, and that high vitamin D levels correlated directly with COVID disease symptom severity.
Key Takeaways:
- With the Covid-19 pandemic, interest in nutrition, particularly as it applies to immunity had skyrocketed. This has brought vitamin D and its immune-boosting capabilities into the limelight.
- One doctor, Bruce Hollis, who has numerous vitamin D tests to his credit, attests that no untoward side effects have ever been experienced by his subjects.
- Hollis holds a PHD and works out of the Medical University of South Carolina. He has been investigating vitamin D for about fifty years.
“Those with the mildest disease had the highest vitamin D levels, and vice versa.”
