We should all take vitamin D against corona. A group of renowned scientists says in the AD that there is enough evidence that it helps. They are even angry that the government is not giving official advice on it.
Two months ago, experts also called for vitamin D to be taken as a precaution. In the meantime, only studies have been added showing its usefulness. Professor of Healthy Aging Manfred Eggersdorfer of the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) refers to research by the leading German cancer researcher Herman Brenner: “It states that vitamin D deficiencies can be responsible for nearly nine out of ten corona deaths. That’s an amazing number! ”
It was a small study, but scientists find it irresponsible to wait longer for more evidence. “There is a growing consensus in the scientific world about the important role of vitamin D,” explains Eggersdorfer. “It can be the The chance that you will get corona and the infection can last shorter.’’
Professor of Immunology at Wageningen University Huub Savelkoul says against the AD: “There are more and more studies showing the benefit of vitamin D. I think it’s a kind of arrogance that the government wants to wait for a meta-study first. It seems as if we don’t care that in the meantime people come to the hospital and die. You have to be careful with that comment, but that is where my frustration is. ”
