Honey, you guys need to take enough vitamin d3 to get your blood levels up over 70. To get that sick so fast from a virus means you are deficient in D3. I get it with the little kids who bring home everything. It’s tough. But you guys can prepare.
Start with the highest vitamin d capsules you can find. There are 10,000 IU. I’d start those today. After a couple weeks, you can go down to 5,000 IU a day for the rest of the season.
Get a neilmed nose irrigation bottle from any pharmacy and use it every morning, takes a few seconds. Feel free to add a couple drops of apple cider vinegar to the bottle along with the salts packet. It works when you’ve been exposed.
Have your baby girl take vitamin d gummies - 2000 IU a day during this season.
Sorry you got so sick.
You might need to add Vitamin K to the D
Vitamin D3 is one of the few vitamins that will build up in your system if you have too much. Do not take it if you don’t need it. Have your blood tested before taking D3.
I got really, really sick on it.
I take one D3 gel capsule (5,000 IU) each day in addition to a multi-vitamin sourced from whole foods. I also drink 50-60 oz of water.
It’s been years & years since I’ve had a cold/flu - really can’t remember when I last had one.
Don’t know if there’s a connection...but it’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
