Don't Allow Vitamin D Deficiency to Increase Your Risk of COVID |
|
Greetings!
It's Video Friday! Today's video is less than two minutes long and cuts to the point - that there is an obvious and important connection between your vitamin D level and your risk of COVID-19 disease and severity. Please take a moment to watch and share the video along with our detailed information below.

Know Your Vitamin D Level and Take Steps to Decrease Your Risk of COVID-19 |
|
Here is a quick summary of what this video discusses, along with additional information and details about vitamin D:
- Too many people are vitamin D deficient. Almost 90% of U.S. adults have a vitamin D level below the recommended range of 40-60 ng/ml. Those participating in the GrassrootsHealth cohort have significantly higher levels than the general population; yet approximately 42% of GrassrootsHealth participants were also below.
-
Vitamin D deficiency is an unnecessary risk factor to COVID-19 as well as many other diseases - it is easily modified through testing and supplementation. There is NO reason to allow vitamin D deficiency to go unnoticed or unaddressed.
-
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of getting COVID-19 as well as an increased risk of disease severity and mortality. One study showed a 53% lower positivity rate with higher vitamin D levels.
- A randomized controlled trial treated 50 hospitalized patients with oral calcifediol (25(OH)D) and compared outcomes to a control group who did not receive the prescription vitamin D. Of the 26 patients in the control group, 13 (50%) required admission to the ICU with two resulting deaths, while only one patient out of the 50 (2%) in the vitamin D group required admission to the ICU, with no resulting deaths. In other words, vitamin D treatment nearly erased the need for ICU admission and did eliminate deaths.
