It was in a group of people unlikely to have calcium, due to age.
So it appears Vitamin D helped either with removing soft plaques or with the innate flexibility of the vessels, regardless of plaque formation.
It looks like we definitely need to supplement with more than 600 IUs, which was so little that it increased stiffness.
It is as if encouraging Africans to move to low light northern latitudes is HARMFUL to them....
my primary doctor really promotes Vitamin D. He says especially in the North, its absolutely necessary to supplement
I suspect vitamin D deficiency is a much bigger problem than previously realized, and not just for black people. I have been taking 2-3000 IU for three years and have not been ill once.
D3, calciferol is the one to take.

Vitamin D deficiency is also a big risk factor for severe covid.
Another sign of Fauci’s malfeasance is his failure to inform and educate the public about Vitamin D3 supplements
Ironically, vitamin D production from sunlight is actually related to skin color. Are we sure it’s not culture?
K2/D3 combo

The FDA always recommends concentration camp ration amounts of vital nutrients. Good for business.

"Sensible sun exposure, especially between the hours of 10:00 am and 3:00 pm produces vitamin D in the skin that may last twice as long in the blood compared with ingested vitamin D. [4] If sun exposure produces slight pinkness, the amount of vitamin D produced in response to exposure of the full body is equivalent to ingesting 10,000-25,000 IU."
Vit D3 is being recognized as more important every day:
Vit D3 helps with chronic urticaria (hives) - dose is 4,000 IU daily. I have this issue - take 5K daily. This usually keeps hives away, but if they do occur, another 10K generally resolves the issue without an antihistamine.

Dr. Zelenko recommends 5,000 IU daily for his COVID prohylaxis protocol.

The Vit D “Hammer” -
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4463890/
” In those patients who do have influenza, we have treated them with the vitamin D hammer, as coined by my colleague. This is a 1-time 50 000 IU dose of vitamin D3 or 10 000 IU 3 times daily for 2 to 3 days. The results are dramatic, with complete resolution of symptoms in 48 to 72 hours. One-time doses of vitamin D at this level have been used safely and have never been shown to be toxic.8 We urgently need a study of this intervention. The cost of vitamin D is about a penny for 1000 IU, so this treatment costs less than a dollar.”
Will Vitamin D also help with Moderna worms in your blood ?
Vit D for me!

Is Vitamin-D racist?
Why doesn’t it rapidly reduce arterial stiffness in overweight/obese, vitamin-deficient white folks too?
Blacks have by far America’s worst diet. That puts them in extreme disadvantage when they get sick with things like Covid, flu, bronchitis, COPD, etc. They have by far the highest rates of heart disease, diabetes, etc. SO MUCH of how long you will live and your quality of life is just what you eat.
