    Correcting Britain's Vitamin D deficiency could save thousands of lives

    Correcting Britain's Vitamin D deficiency could save thousands of lives

    "A groundbreaking new study points to a cheap, safe, effective way of tackling Covid"

    The gold standard of medical research is the randomised controlled trial. Back in May, we had no such test for vitamin D and Covid-19. Now we do. The world’s first randomised control trial on vitamin D and Covid has just been published. The results are clear-cut. The trial, which took place in Spain at the Reina Sofía University Hospital, involved 76 patients suffering from Covid-19. Fifty of those patients were given vitamin D. The remaining 26 were not. Half of those not given Vitamin D became so sick that they needed to be put on intensive care. By comparison, only one person who was given Vitamin D requiring ICU admission.

    "Vitamin D cannot be obtained from a normal diet, but is synthesised by summer sunshine. It is unusual among vitamins in being deficient in much of the British population especially towards the end of winter"

    I dont know, these people are fookin morons. They want to force 70 million to drink sunny D based on a study of 70 people in the south of Spain.

            They live in Spain. How are they not getting enough vit D via sunlight? Although calcium deficiency affects vit-d uptake.

              Doctors in Iran are complaining to the government regarding the law for women to cover their arms an legs because it causes vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is rife in Iran.
