How many complaining about these symptoms on this thread take Vitamin D3?
Vitamin D3? Yes; but not as consistently as I should. Vitamin C, too, is supposed to help keep it at bay.
I have to take Cacitriol which is active vitamin D. Got sick and was down for the count for two days right after the Super Bowl, then crummy for three more days. Since then, I feel just fine (relatively speaking.) But another gal that was at our Super Bowl party had been sick for four weeks and still trying to get over it. I might have gotten it from her but I got over it quickly and without bronchitis. I swear it’s the vitamin D that’s helping my immune system.
I rarely get sick....
..refused to take a flu shot this year....(son-in-law took a flu shot and still got the flu 2 weeks ago....)
He was at my home the night he came down with it.....and my granddaughter was also sick and accidentally coughed in my face...
..therefore....I have a variation of what most of the folks on this thread is talking about....
“Like” your question!
Yes, how many of you who are or got sick take your proper dose of vitamin d3? Catching viruses is a symptom itself, of being deficient In vitamin d!
Remember to go get your d level tested with a blood test. You want to have a therapeutic dose, and to know what that is, you need to get tested a couple times until your supplementation gets your blood level of d3 above 60. That is the normal virus and cancer prevention level, if you have cancer or anything xhronic, you might want to be as high as 70 or 80. I actually have to take 15,000 units a day to get to 60. Even living in a sunny clime does not help me. But I don't catch anything any more. Go get tested. Not getting sick is worth it.
