The Role of Inflammation in Disease
Inflammation is the body’s way of fighting against things that harm it, such as infections, and toxins (including bacteria and viruses), in an attempt to heal itself.
Vitamin D and Immune Health this Winter
There are numerous studies by doctors and scientists across the globe linking vitamin D status to Corona Virus disease outcome. While there is no evidence that Vitamin D can protect us from contracting viruses, there is growing evidence that it can affect disease outcome. In short, Vitamin D deficiency is correlated with increased chances of hospitalisation and morbidity whereas those with optimal levels of Vitamin D are more likely to experience milder symptoms or even be asymptomatic.
