- Compelling evidence indicates vitamin D deficiency is the ‘seasonal stimulus’ responsible for flu outbreaks.
- “Physiological doses (800-2,000 IU/day) of vitamin D prevent many viral infections”, and “Vitamin D is the ‘antibiotic vitamin’ due primarily to its robust effects on innate immunity“.
- Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial: 104 women given vitamin D were 3 times less likely to report cold and flu symptoms. “A low dose (800 IU/day) not only reduced incidence, it abolished the seasonality of reported colds and flu. A higher dose (2,000 IU/day), given during the last year of their trial, virtually eradicated all reports of cold or flu“.
- Vitamin D deficiency predisposes children to respiratory infections, and an interventional study showed vitamin D reduces the incidence.
