Im praying this information can reach mainstream media. As of this morning the ladies of The View could only see a world of lockdown in our future. I actually felt sorry for their limited understanding of how to fight this disease: with good metabolic health.
Im letting my youngest go to a birthday party this week. He is in good health, and has lost 5 pounds recently....all that farm work. |
It is eerie how this pandemic seems targeted at metabolic health. And now there's so much science to support this diet switch. Plus our own considerable experience.

Not to veer off into the crazy world of dueling statistics on Covid and lockdowns, but check Ivor Cummins work for the past month, the charts on excess deaths, previous winter flus, etc. Last winter was very mild, some at risk with poor metabolic health survived, but this year with Covid was deadly. With more actual data in the US, median age of death is 80, 95%+ have at least one co-moridity, 60%+ in NC and other states lived in nursing homes. Sad, severe but not that different from other bad flu seasons. The tragedy is the loss of younger people with poor metabolic health. The UK and Dr Malhotra are doing a much better job than in US Getting the message out about the diet connection.

The British Medical Journal has an article that says they have found Dexamethazone effective against CO VID 19

Dex is very cheap......that dex works is more evidence that inflamation is key to beating this.
Where did Ivor present his findings? Love his engineering angle and the facts that he presents. |
Government bodies to review if vitamin D can help protect against coronavirus

Thanks Demi...I think The Telegraph has "my number" and blocks me every chance I try to read it for free :lol: :lol:
This is a new study on Vit D, Vitamin D and the Hepatitis B Vaccine Response: A Prospective Cohort Study and a Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Oral Vitamin D 3 and Simulated Sunlight Supplementation Trial in Healthy Adults https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32390123/ And an older review of the topic. Is There an Optimal Vitamin D Status for Immunity in Athletes and Military Personnel? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26853300/ These two links shared by author Prof Neil Walsh on Twitter. |
I think picking countries to prove an assertion is more Ancel Keys cherry-picking than anything. COVID hits older populations harder. Sweden isn't following best practices with social distancing, but the other Scandinavian countries are. In some Asian countries, they're used to masks (Thanks to SARS and MERS) and just about everyone wears them in public. So it really is difficult to pick out one thing and make an accurate assessment based on a few countries. You can find any answer you want in the data.

Yes, and with so many things in upheaval it can be difficult to sort through the chaos. I had to study the whole inflammation issue to figure out my autoimmune illness, and from MY angle, this is all about diet & D & stress & sleep. Because all of those things influence each other to an incredible degree, and all are explained by the body's immune system via both the brain and the gut biome. Every solid medical trend line that gets reinforced seems to feed back into this same paradigm. I follow news items that dispute it... and seen them fade out as further study is done. We also have the advantage of seeing the entire world working on this; which helps extinguish known bad actors on the field, the ones who pay for research which benefits their profit motive. It helps that my own thinking matches up with DietDoctor's :lol: |
Imo ALL countries are evaluated, abd the article picked prime examples to explain the vit D connection.
In my reading across many unrelated sources Vit D has a remarkable role in preventing the cytokine storm. In an indepth biochemical presentation, the role of vitD made sense. Other sources point out who in the world is high...or low. Canadians supplement regularly. When my kids visited FL , they noticed everyone lives inside in the AC. Vit D makes sense.....though it may not be the only factor..... On this forum, we are aware that eating the SAD results in total body inflammation, and eating a diet without sugar and limiting high carb foods corrects the inflammation. Eating correctly and supplementing with Vit D3 has its supporters. |

75 is 2-3 times the acceptable 30. My sons doc thought 27 was just fine but the ortho was very concerned about the lack of bone density( there for knee injury) but said nothing about vit D. Said eat more calcium. When asked about K 2, he confused it with K 1. So I did a bit of searching for info...... son was getting enough calcium as he us a yogurt hog, so added VIT D 10,000 units and about 200 mg , or is it umg, of K2. IMO children should be annually tested for Vit D levels. In my son's case , pediatrician knew he did not drink fluid milk, but only ate cheese and yogurt. The plus side is this happened a couple years ago, and in my family we all supplement with D, and K, and more. |
