And the best natural source of vitamin D is sunlight. So instead of being cooped up in our homes, we should have been getting plenty of fresh air, and sunshine.

If it really does work, the FDA will pull it off the shelves because pharma.

So, the lockdowns actually make things worse?
Except in Seattle where it rains nine months out of the year and use 1000+ sunblock the rest of the time.
how infuriating!! can you imagine if the the brandon administration embraced this information and spread it as enthusiastcally as the vaccine push? oh my!
Sure seems like it.
Sunshine often please
I didn’t see anything about how much to take daily.
UV goes through the clouds and a virus still only lasts 5 mins outside.
I take 5000 IUs a day!...................
Twenty years!
Shhhh, don’t let the liberal leftists in Seattle know that, it’ll freak them out and never go outside. Maybe that’s a good thing.
Actually should have written: snowflakes.

Bingo!
We try to walk 5-10 minutes outside every other hour.
Also, we take two of Costco’s chewable Calcium gummies with
25 mcg of Vitamin D between the two chewables. That is 125% of the MDR for adults.
All through this COVID nonsense, I've been taking vitamin D3 supplements daily. I also get out in the sun every day and and plenty of food already rich in vitamin D such as eggs, sardines and salmon. I never get sick, never wear a mask unless the Gestapo makes me (like on a train or hospital) and I go to NYC just about every week.
Yet many people just utterly reject the advice to get plenty of Vitamin D and they huddle up in their homes like frightened rabbits.
I know some will say that sunlight exposure alone will give you sufficient vitiman D and technically that is true but you need to pay attention to what latitude you are living on. Those in more northern climes will need to supplement between about November and March because the sun just doesn't get high enough in the sky to be effective. If you live in tropical climes, you are all set, provided you get out in the sun everyday without sunscreen.
The last four years I’ve been taking K2 and D3. Before covid, my PCP’s assistant said to cut back on the D3 pills, as my level was 94. Almost at the maximum, she said. I cut back for a bit and the reading dropped into the 70’s. I’m taking even more now. :)
I’ve been taking 2000 units of Vitamin D and a zinc lozenge every day. And I’m triply vaccinated. No COVID so far.
And I wonder if the omicron variant is a sign of the covid virus mutating into a mere cold virus. I don’t know, but I can do informed speculation!
