VITAMIN D, SUN AND IMMUNE SYSTEM

It's very important, in the present moment, pay attention to improving the immune system and that is why we wanted to write this article, because we think it can be useful to you.

In Spain, despite enjoying splendid sunshine in many areas, There is an increasing lack of Vitamin D, something that surely, many of you already know.

The normal, although it depends on each analytical is that Vitamin D oscile 30 and 120. The reality is that the majority of the population, is below 30. Specifically, the elderly and especially, those who reside in nursing homes, They are the ones with the greatest lack of this vitamin.. Does anyone who is the most vulnerable in this pandemic ring any bells??

why is this so important right now?

Because there are scientific studies, which clearly demonstrate that Vitamin D is very important, in addition to its effects on the homeostasis between calcium and bones, in the immune system. AND, THAT'S HOW IT IS.

Vitamin D has the ability to be synthesized through B and T lymphocytes.. Thus, Vitamin D can modulate the innate and adaptive immune response.

Vitamin D deficiencies are associated with an increase in autoimmune pathologies as well as a greater susceptibility to infectious agents..

Vitamin D and Autoimmune pathologies

Vitamin D has been used to treat infections such as tuberculosis, before the antibacterial effect of antibiotics was known. tuberculosis patients, They were sent to sanatoriums where their treatment included exposure to sunlight, which was thought to directly kill tuberculosis.

There is increasing scientific evidence linking Vitamin D deficiency with autoimmune pathologies including, Multiple Sclerosis (EM), Rheumatoid Arthritis (AR), Diabetes Mellitus (DM), inflammatory bowel pathology and systemic lupus erythematosus among others.

Vitamin D and Covid-19

Right now we are in a state of alarm in Spain and we are isolated in our homes. Who has a garden or balcony, Spend some time every day sunbathing (with the corresponding protection), Remember that if you do not have a garden or balcony, It's worth a window but still, Herbalists, Pharmacies, Parapharmacies, small business in short, They are working to guarantee minimum services and that we do not lack anything.

It is also possible to supplement this Vitamin D naturally, liquid or capsule. We recommend:

  • Ergy D from Nutergia in liquid, 3 sublingual daily drops.
  • Vitamin D from Elementales Novadiet, 1 daily capsule.
  • Vitamin D from Suravitasan, 1 daily capsule.

Keep in mind that the amount of Vitamin D per capsule, It is measured in UI (International Units). Therefore, it's not the same, a capsule of 5.000 UI that of 25.000 UI (this would have a quantity 5 times greater). This is important because Vitamin D is not water-soluble. (is not eliminated with urine) sino liposoluble, namely, is stored and therefore, An excess of it is not recommended as it can cause calcifications., bladder or kidney stones, etc.…

As usual, We recommend going to a health professional who will guide us and recommend the correct dose in each case.. Let us also remember that it is preferable, take a little every day, than large quantities once a month since the body has a certain absorption and assimilation capacity.

We hope this article is useful to you. And as Super Mouse said, Don't forget to supervitaminize and mineralize yourself (especially Vitamin D that is not lacking). You can make comments at the bottom of the blog or write to us at info@acureishi.com
