So Vitamin D now.. OK get out more in the sunshine without overly covering up and stop with the sunscreen, the darker you are the more sun you need, nature provides, let it

Just taking vitamin D is definitely not recommended (serious kidney damage if too much). Any MD who says "just take it" is an idiot.

The idea is to not take too much (stay under dangerous levels) but still at normal or slightly above levels.

^ watch from 18 mins onwards.


Normal levels is over 30ng/mL.
John Campbell says get over 50ng/mL.

Now these arnt "dangerous" levels that should damage your kidneys, drkohler.

What they will do is make you less likely to get a infection, recover like 7 times faster (with less overall damage taken), and be 10 times less likely to die to covid19.



"Any MD who says "just take it" is an idiot." - drkohler.

Covid19 can potentially kill millions of people.
if you can reduce the amount that die by a factor of 10, by makeing sure everyone has sufficent amounts of vitamin D... why wouldnt you?

100 people dieing from covid19 would turn into 10 people dieing.
If you made sure everyone had vitamin D suppliments.

Scale that up into the millions, and the amount of lives you could save by giveing people a suppliment of vitamins is insane.
