If you can get some sunshine – get it! Getting outside when the altitude of the sun is high enough will help you absorb some Vit. D.  If you are housebound or totally skin covered, with clothing or sunscreen, then you need a good Vit D3 supplement. Considering the benefits of Vit. D for bones, immunity, mental outlook, cancer prevention…..why not add this to your daily health program?

Since posting this originally in December, 2009, there has been so much research on Vitamin. D3, CA / Vitamin D3   US, I  have added onto this article twice. Please  Contact our office for 25% discount & free shipping, on quality, absorbable Vit D2 to protect you.

March 2007 edition of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition lashed out at the conventional media for its inaccurate reporting of Vitamin D supplementation. Since then, continual research has shown that the majority of those living North of Tropic of Cancer and South of Tropic of Capricorn are deficient, especially during winter months.

When one considers the wide reaching benefits, which I summarize below, and the inexpensive availability of this supplement, the medical community is negligent in not promoting higher intake. Health Canada is even more negligent by lowering the limits available in supplements, despite the plethora of research indicating otherwise.

Benefits of a quality, absorbable Vitamin D3:

  • Cancer

connection between Vitamin D3 and protection from cancer has been published since the 1940s, when doctors discovered that individuals at sunny latitudes had a reduced rate of deaths from cancer. Since then, studies have strongly suggested that Vitamin D3 deficiency is associated with an increased risk of developing many forms of cancer including breast, ovarian, prostate and colon cancer. Many people who are getting positive results with The Paw Paw Program for cancer, also add 4-10,000 units of Vit. D3 to their program.

  • Bone Health

    including osteopenia, osteoporosis and osteomalacia and arthritis. 2015 research indicates that increased knee pain during winter months is not due to the cold as much as it is lowered levels of Vit. D.

  • Depression

  • Cognitive Enhancement

  • Immune System Enhancement

  • Back Pain

  • Multi-Talented Nutrient

Vitamin D3 deficiency has been linked to a host of other conditions such as high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and an increased risk of pre-eclampsia and insulin resistance during pregnancy. Low Vitamin D3 levels have been linked to an increased prevalence of early age-related macular degeneration.

A growing number of researchers who have widely studied Vitamin D3 are almost begging the general public to consume more of this important nutrient. Due to Vitamin D3’s high safety profile in doses up to 10,000 IU per day and because of the wide role it plays in our health, consuming 2,000 to 10,000 IU per day of this nutrient at times of the year when sunlight is scarce is a prudent way to improve overall health.

Dec. 2020 RESEARCH UPDATE:

Below is just one of thousands of studies that are stating that increased Vit. D3 could prevent COVID deaths. This information is not promoted on mainstream news. Why? Could it be that this supplement is an inexpensive remdy in comparison to billions being spent on vaccines? ….follow the money. Here is the summary of 1 research:

More Than 80% of COVID Patients Are Vitamin D Deficient

Currently, the respiratory infection of note is of course COVID-19, and vitamin D appears to have a lot to do with your risk of this infection as well.

According to a Spanish study13,14,15 published online October 27, 2020, in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 82.2% of COVID-19 patients tested were found to be deficient in vitamin D. As reported by the authors:16
“In COVID-19 patients, mean± SD 25OHD levels were 13.8±7.2 ng/ml, compared to 20.9 ±7.4 ng/ml in controls. 25OHD values were lower in men than in women. Vitamin D deficiency was found in 82.2% of COVID-19 cases and 47.2% of population-based controls.
25OHD inversely correlate to serum ferritin and D-dimer levels. Vitamin D deficient COVID-19 patients had a greater prevalence of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases, raised serum ferritin and troponin levels, as well as a longer length of hospital stay than those with serum 25 OHD levels ? 20 ng/ml.”

While this particular study failed to find a correlation between vitamin D levels and disease severity, other studies have shown patients with higher levels do tend to have milder disease. In fact, one such study17,18 found your risk of developing a severe case of, and dying from, COVID-19 virtually disappears once your vitamin D level gets above 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L).

SARS COVID 19 update

COVID-19, , , , , , , , , ,
I posted 3 articles on COVID from March to early April. Those links are at end of this article.

 

I thank those who commented and added further references.  In the 3 months since posting those, I have received thousands of global scientific reports and meta-analyses from multiple sources that support and affirm my views about the shifts which are happening in our world.

 

In this, hopefully my last article on COVID, I  want to focus on positive ways to affect imminent changes.  I believe we need to shift from following fear-based “new normals” being forced and mandated by government,  to opportunities for positive change within each of us,  as well as to community, region, country and eventually world-wide.
Challenge: A virus that is directing changes
If you have only heard mainstream media reports about the virus, you may choose to briefly look at two resources that summarize studies you may have not heard:
  1. “COVID” Facts: 30 succinct points with science based references; updated end June, 2020:   https://swprs.org/a-swiss-doctor-on-covid-19/
  2. The 2nd Wave:   Institute Peace & Prosperity
Solutions: to overcome fear – an impediment to critical & creative thinking:
  1. What would happen if 1% of global population would have the same thought at the same time? It’s about creating a new reality, a safe and healthy world. To help learn the power of Collective Consiousness, you can join in your community with like-minded people who will support each other in times of change.

2. One world-wide project that can help you create postive vision is                                           The Vision Alignment Project .  

Where our awareness goes, our energy flows; energy creates reality.

3. Practice Pre-Figuration to End Lockdowns Inside Us:  by Nicanor Perlas,  who has done an excellent job of  listing multiple references to support  his statements.

“Let us consciously de-hypnotize ourselves daily from mainstream narratives and commands. Let us be free agents in our own private space. Doing deeds based on scientific reasoning will free us from being victims of forced, external control. Practice freedom and we predispose ourselves towards freedom.

There are no tyrants, if there are no (fearful and willing) slaves.”

If you have other suggestions that help to create a better world…..
  • where people are free to make choices that resonate with them, while presenting no harm to others who choose differently
  • where peaceful diversity and choice is accepted and respected by internal moral governance rather than  mandated by exterior governance (yes, a Utopian view!)
please add your comments.
