[COVID-19] The ONE Vitamin You NEED More Of!

Over the past few months, I’ve told you about numerous ways to stay safe in the COVID-19 era.
Most of them are common-sense cures that involve bolstering your immune system and your body’s built-in virus-fighters.
Most medicine is common sense, after all.
But today is different… because today I’m excited to tell you about a new discovery.
It’s a simple vitamin that could reduce the severity of COVID-19 in those infected… and possibly even reduce the risk of dying from it.
Studies keep popping up on vitamin D and COVID-19.
So far, most of the research has shown the problems with being deficient in D: It increases your risk of catching COVID-19, of having more severe symptoms, and of dying from it.
But a recent study has found a different connection:
How supplementing with vitamin D can dramatically reduce the severity of COVID-19 in those who are already sick.
Seventy-six patients were admitted to the hospital with COVID-19 and were given the standard treatment protocols. But 50 of those patients were also given calcifediol, a metabolized form of vitamin D that quickly increases blood levels.
The results were impressive.
The patients receiving calcifediol were much less likely to need intensive care—and NONE of them died.
Compare that to the 26 patients NOT receiving calcifediol… where HALF were admitted to the ICU and two of them died.
Clearly, quickly increasing the body’s supply of vitamin D had a major impact on the severity of the illness—and could possibly have been life-saving for the two individuals not receiving the treatment.
The following was the dose used for the study:
.532 mg on day 1
.266 mg on days 2-6
This study shows just how potent vitamin D could be in treating COVID-19, while other studies have shown its importance in preventing it.
Either way, vitamin D is emerging as a powerful weapon against COVID-19.

There are two words that send shivers down everyone’s spine: Alzheimer’s disease. It’s a condition that’s characterized by a buildup of toxic beta-amyloid plaques in your brain. They interfere with the communication between neurons in your brain, and they lead to the death of neurons. It’s a devastating double-whammy. But a recent study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease found that nature’s “green secret” could be...

Dr. G’s Top 6 Supplements to FIGHT Aging
Let’s face it, we all know people who “look great for their age.” Well, here’s a crazy idea: What if we took our biological age and threw it out the window. Because frankly, instead of accepting aging as a part of life, I’d rather focus on vitality at any age (NOT vitality despite my age!). There are plenty of lifestyle change you can...
Are You Being Overtreated for CANCER? [The Ugly Truth]
Make no mistake about it: Medicine is big business. I wish most doctors and medical organizations made decisions based on the patient’s best interests — as opposed to the bottom line… But too often that’s not the case. What does that mean for you? It means you could be counseled to get a procedure or a surgery that you DON’T need. Because let’s face it, mainstream...
[Study] 4 Supplements Linked to LowerCOVID-19 Risk?
When it comes to COVID-19, you should be doing whatever it takes to lower your risk — especially if you’re an older adult. According to the CDC, 8 out of 10 COVID-19 deaths have been in people over 65. And, compared to people 5-17 years old, the rate of death in folks from 65-74 is 1300 TIMES HIGHER. That’s not a typo. But whatever your age, you can do...
There’s no doubt that what you eat impacts your physical health. But food’s impact on your mental and emotional wellbeing is just as powerful. There are plenty of reasons for this connection. A big one is because your gut contains neurons, and serotonin (the neurotransmitter that’s involved in depression and anxiety) is particularly abundant in your gut. Personally, I find that fascinating. Plus,...

Because a recent study found out that these hidden dangers of pre-diabetes could be just as deadly as diabetes itself. Prediabetes is considered...
