I ordered some Vitamin D and some Zinc. After I got the Zinc, the price per bottle was almost doubled on one particular brand. Yes, I got some extra C as well, a little earlier.
The Zinc are 50mg so I’ll take one or two a week.
Love Vitamin D milk. Great stuff.
Interesting.
thanks for that- I’m a stoner- so gotta watch how much D i get- as D can lead to more kidney stones-
D is though one of the very few vitamins/minerals/herbs that i have faith in that works- and won’t hesitate to take a megadose IF a cold comes on
Magnesium is another one-
D should be 50-80...
I’m all in on D3 supplementation.
Best I’ve felt in years, truth be told...
In one study it was found that 100% of ICU COVID-19 patients less than 75 years old had vitamin D insufficiency.

So to make sure people get sick, lock them indoors all day.
Yup...kinda like nursing and assisted living places
Or per tablet, that is.
been religious about taking these vitamins the last 3 months....vit D3...4000mg/vit C 1000mg/Tumeric/fish oil..2 pills/occuvite with lutin...
I have been taking 12,000 in twice per day in addition to a number of other supplements to help slow down progression of my metastatic prostate cancer.
Not sure if they all help, but none of them do harm.
Low vitamin D3 levels are very common in men diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Vitamin level of 35 is still on the very low end of normal. 75-85 is much better as it also helps prevent prostate cancer if you are a man.
thanks- coulda swore they told me 35
Low production of ADAMTS13 to counter the thrombosis which reduces blood flow to brain tissues. Just a guess
30-100 is normal. Betterto be much closer to 100 than 30.
You should definitely take the D.
But I’m taking Quercetin with the zinc.
It’s a zinc ionophore that helps the cells absorb the zinc.
That’s what Hydroxylchoroquine does too.
Though quercetin is probably much safer.
On the other hand there are no studies of Quercetin and zinc.
But quercetin is found in the white stuff on oranges between the peel and the orange slices.
bttt
I take both (D and zinc) and have for many years, and my experience is positive compared to the period before I started. Used to catch the seasonal colds and flus almost every winter, then stopped doing so. Allergies also reduced. However, I spend a fair amount of time outdoors too, so perhaps I am gaining more benefits from that. Also, even if you just think these things are healthful, that in itself can be a positive (attitude helps).
I also believe that reducing sugar in our diets has a considerable net positive effect on our health.
Not a complete ban, that might be overdoing it, but where practical substitute for sugar. I certainly get fewer headaches than before I made the switch, and can tolerate red wine which used to bring on headaches too.
oh ok thanks-
Nursing home patients are unlikely to get out in the sun much.
