Dr. Pierre Kory: Big Pharma is ‘TERRIFIED’ of Vitamin D Why? Because “It threatens the DISEASE MODEL.” A new meta-analysis out of Italy, published in the journal, Nutrients, has unearthed some shocking data about Vitamin D. Looking at data from 16 different studies and 1.26 million individuals, the meta-analysis revealed: • Vitamin D showed about a 60% effectiveness against the incidence of COVID-19 in randomized control trials. • Vitamin D showed about 40-50% effectiveness in reducing the incidence of COVID-19 in observational studies. • For preventing severe COVID-19 cases requiring ICU care, vitamin D supplementation was about 70% effective. So, we didn’t need to lock ourselves inside for years, be afraid, and vilify our neighbors for not wearing a mask. All we needed to do was to go outside, get sunshine, and increase our vitamin D levels, and everything would have been fine.

Data from the new TargetD trial suggests that prior vitamin D trials were flawed: news-medical.net/news/20231113/… Many people, even professionals, still think vitamin D was a false profit that was disproven by big RCTs. This view is very flawed, for several reasons. A brief history:

While true that vitamin D has a higher affinity for fat cells in the body, it is not stored as a means of maintaining a steady serum level necessary for health. In fact, the more fat a person has on their body the more likely they are to have D deficiency. buff.ly/3TbYv4e
