    Wrong... Our skin pigmentation affects.

    I have written enough on Vitamin D before. Please search through my posts.

    Copied from one of my previous replies on Vitamin D.....

    As I mentioned before living in SL or in the Sun doesn't help much. With dark skins the Vitamin D synthesis is low. Here's a recent notification from the MOH.

    "Among Sri Lankan adults Vitamin D deficiency was 58.8% and insufficiency 31.4%. Overall around 90% of Sri Lankan adults are not having adequate levels of vitamin D. A study conducted in Southern Sri Lanka (2013) found that overall VDD among community-dwelling healthy women was 56.2%. Another study found the age and sex-adjusted prevalence of VDD was 57.2% in an adult Sri Lankan urban population (2015). Among school children aged 10-18 years (2017), the prevalence of VDD and VDI was 13.2% (95%CI: 11.9%- 14.5%) and 45.6% (95%CI: 43.7%-47.5%), respectively. The results shown imply the high burden of VDD & VDI which suggests the government plan mitigation strategies to reduce the attributed disease burden in the country."

    Just take 2000IU a day.

    PS: You can always do a blood test and check.

    PS; You don't have to take high doses. Keep on using 1000IU or 2000 IU a day. THis is safe. HIgh doses were IV administered during the first SARS infection. It does seem to protect the older people. Generally Vitamin D offers benefits with respiratory diseases even though the exact mechanism is not clear.

    Many people are deficient and don’t realize it because of no symptoms and doctors don’t routinely check vitamin D levels.

    All in our household were taking 2000IU after Covid.

    FYI.. here are my results over a considerable period.
    29/09/15 Vit D level 56 nmol/L
    29/05/20 Vit D level 64 nmol/L
    19/05/22 Vit D level 70 nmol/L
    14/09/24 Vit D level 96 nmol/L

    Do NOT take high strength Vitamin D supplements unless you have specific issues that might need a prescription high dose. Too much Vitamin D can be bad as it causes Vit D toxicity.

    Here's a reply I made for an older post....

    "That's because D3 and K2 works in unison. Vit K is also helpful in a Covid situation as it can help to prevent thrombosis and also in the way that it interacts with MGP (Matrix Gla protein) which is a vitamin K-dependent inhibitor of soft tissue calcification and elastic fibre degradation.
    You can buy Ostelin which has D3, K2 and also Ca."

    Simply Vitamin D3 ensures that calcium is absorbed easily and K2 activates the protein, osteocalcin, which integrates calcium into bone. Without D3 and K2, calcium cannot do its job effectively.
    Vitamins D and K are both fat-soluble vitamins and play a central role in calcium metabolism.

    Is Ostelin available in Sri Lanka around Colombo?
