1 in 4 COVID patients hospitalized while vitamin D deficient die – Israeli study

Among those without deficiency who are hospitalized, only 3% die; patients with insufficient D are also 14 times likelier to end up in severe or critical condition, research shows

Hospitalized COVID-19 patients are far more likely to die or to end up in severe or critical condition if they are vitamin D-deficient, Israeli researchers have found.

In a study conducted in a Galilee hospital, 26 percent of vitamin D-deficient coronavirus patients died, while among other patients the figure was at 3%.

“This is a very, very significant discrepancy, which represents a big clue that starting the disease with very low vitamin D leads to increased mortality and more severity,” Dr. Amir Bashkin, endocrinologist and part of the research team, told The Times of Israel.

ransomnote: I do wish Fauci promoted vitamin D as hard as he pushes the 'vaccines.' He said in an interview in 2020 that he is careful to take Vitamin D. HULLOOO? Could our medical establlishments educate the public on simple steps like Vitamin D to protect themselves?

Also, the FDA is now pulling N.A.C. from store shelves (Amazon has already removed them but some in person and online stores are still available). They gave no reason why NAC is being removed after decades of safe use by those with asthma, lung diseases and other breathing difficulties. 

I think N.A.C. is being removed because people take it for Covid, to reduce risk of getting it and to improve breathing if they do get Covid.

Others, like me for example, report excellent results taking N.A.C. if they've already had Covid or feel run down from the Plendemic. It'ts good for what ails you if you have the Covid blues (blahs)! I really got a boost from taking it, and so the FDA must remove it.

If you're interested in trying it or setting some aside, buy now. It's available in some locations in healthfood stores or places like Walmart. Online I've heard rumors it's in various stores (Vitacost?). Here's one link I'm aware of (no, I don't get kickbacks from anyone, let alone Swansons.com) so you can check out the name.

NAC N-Acetyl Cysteine 600 mg Supplement

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) - I decided to start taking a few weeks ago when articles came out and indicated it had a good effect against covid - in the following days Amazon banned its sale.

Good to know. I’ll check with my MD and add it to my cocktail in a reasonably small dose of course.

How do you take the 10,000 of D3 each day? All at once, two 5,000 twice a day, etc.? I’ve been taking 5,000 once daily for over a year, but am wondering if it should be more.

hard to OD on D3 as long as Parathyroids are working because they control the conversion of D3 to the active form ...


If you have excess vitamin D, a normal increase of the parathyroid hormone causes excess activation.

Excess vitamin D reduce vitamin k and gamma tocopherol.

I heard they were taking NAC off shelves and purchased a dozen bottles have been taking NAC from day one part of the regimental supplements my neurologist put me on. I have an immune disorder that has been in remission for about 7 months now he told me under NO circumstances to take this vax he just doesn’t have enough data of how it effects immune disorders!! My doc is FURIOUS over NAC being removed as a supplement he has NEVER seen the government over ride Dr. decisions for their patients!! He has been outraged over Dr.’s being banned from prescribing HCQ and invermectin he has patients with Lupus that have been on HCQ for decades AND NOW what he has to go through to keep them on these meds has been ridiculous!! I got the HCQ and invermectin through an Indian pharmacy just in case HOWEVER my doc has hundreds of patients with immune disorders EVERYONE on D3, C, Quercetin, Zinc and NAC not ONE SINGLE patient has contracted CV19 yet as of one week ago when I saw him!! My doc is in research at UCLA med center he is very skeptical of the vax AND has not taken it himself!!

You’re correct, but I’ve yet to see one person, other than you, mention that key point. You could have the proper levels naturally without taking additional dosages.

Good idea.

Whenever we felt symptoms of anything we took Zicam and tonic water.

(Got lots of sunshine until I had trouble with heat exhaustion)
