The role of Vitamin D in health and immunity

Recently, there have been mounting questions about whether Vitamin D can
help fight coronavirus or help with a better outcome.

Although a review of research by NICE suggests there is no evidence to support taking vitamin D supplements to specifically prevent or treat coronavirus experts think that it may have broader health benefits during the pandemic to keep people as nutritionally fit as possible. Vitamin D plays such a crucial role in boosting the immune system.

One of the unique benefits of OG Omega-3 PLUS is that it offers more than your daily recommended allowance of Vitamin D3. Vitamin D is important for healthy bones, teeth, skin and muscles and as we head into the winter months its difficult to get enough Vitamin D from food alone. Studies have found that getting enough vitamin D may potentially cut your chances in half of coming down with the flu.

The NHS says people should consider taking 10 micrograms of vitamin D a day if they are spending a lot of time indoors.

In an recent article in The Telegraph co-authored by MP David Davis and the science journalist Matt Ridley, the pair write: “There is one chemical that is known to be safe, known to be needed by many people anyway, known to have a clinically proven track record of helping people fight off respiratory diseases, and is so cheap no big firm is pushing it: vitamin D.”
