Scott Tracy Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) From the NHS website: The Behind the Headlines team has tackled numerous studies on supplements and during our work it has become clear that the widely perceived benefits of certain supplements simply do not have enough robust evidence to support them. At times, these misconceptions appear to have been formed due to press coverage, at other times because of the way some products are marketed or because of the sheer volume of misinformation floating around on the internet. Quackery in all but name....and a 'government' body. What more do you need?

shy coconut Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 5 hours ago, simon43 said: The importance of having a healthy and strong immune system is not just important to ward off Wuhan flu - it's important to help the body fight any type of pathogen that infects it, whether this be a virus or bacteria. Those who are already unhealthy (eg fat, diabetic etc) should be doing all they can to strengthen their immune system, because these underlying conditions weaken the immune system. I note in the western media that suggesting that fat people are more liable to succumb to Wuhan flu is about as welcome as offering to bang Boris's GF... the PC and snowflake generation don't want to hear the truth. Yet when I look at the photos in the British media of those who have sadly died from this virus, one fact is evident ==> the vast majority of those who have succumbed are obese, and obesity is one cause of a weakened immune system. Rather than risk your health, and to avoid the NHS or your country's health authority forced to care for you when you are taken ill with diseases such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart problems and strokes, (all of which are generally brought about by a self-imposed, unhealthy lifestyle), I urge you to get off your backsides, start exercising and start eating healthy food to boost your immune systems. I'm just back from eating my daily salad and 5Km jog ???? Now to do some free weights.... I agree with most of everything you say but am a little perplexed about the part about Boris's GF. She's not hideous, although having recently given birth may mean her libido might not be sky high. I'm not a fan of his and am barely aware of her, it just seemed like an odd thing to put in the middle of that particular post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger70 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Why aren't governments advising people to boost their immune systems? What's that got to do with the government?

Max69xl Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 7 hours ago, Rancid said: Hmm, I would disagree. Any rudimentary understanding of our physiology demonstrates the importance of our immune system. Read up some time time about how old Rockefeller took over healthcare and started Big Pharma, nothing conspiracy, just simply about another profit opportunity, and what fortune it still generates. Governments are all onboard with the so called science, hence why they toe the line. Read some pharmacology, they know exactly how these drugs mess people up, but they still push them. Do you also believe in the tooth fairy? You can't just eat vitamins and your immune system will automatically improve.

Unfortunately, they don't..... that's why 64.3% of adults in the UK are overweight (government stats), and 71.6% of those in the USA. They would all prefer to eat sugary, processed foods and lounge in front of the TV, rather than showing any concern for their own health. If anything 'good' comes out of all these sad deaths from Wuhan flu, it would be that it scares the sh*t out of some unhealthy people, and they change their diet and start doing some exercise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats it and all about it. Boosting your immune system is different from generating immunity from Covid-19 or other illnesses. There is some quality <deleted><kw!ttery on this thread so far, its not surprising which posters are throwing out their usual idiotic statements. A poor diet can be complimented with a daily intake of vitamins which can help boost an immune system, as will getting enough sleep and ensuring you are not fatigued, not succumbing to stress etc Why aren't governments advocating healthier diets, ensuring the intake of vitamins in a healthy diet or at least supplementing a diet? For the same reason there are no 'safe driving' campaigns on the TV etc... for some reason the governments thing its important or don't seem to be bothered.

The science states just the opposite. Vitamin D benefits are indisputable. Have been for decades now. This from the NIH. It is now clear that vitamin D has important roles in addition to its classic effects on calcium and bone homeostasis. As the vitamin D receptor is expressed on immune cells (B cells, T cells and antigen presenting cells) and these immunologic cells are all are capable of synthesizing the active vitamin D metabolite, vitamin D has the capability of acting in an autocrine manner in a local immunologic milieu. Vitamin D can modulate the innate and adaptive immune responses. Deficiency in vitamin D is associated with increased autoimmunity as well as an increased susceptibility to infection. As immune cells in autoimmune diseases are responsive to the ameliorative effects of vitamin D, the beneficial effects of supplementing vitamin D deficient individuals with autoimmune disease may extend beyond the effects on bone and calcium homeostasis. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3166406/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) I agree that there is enough scientific evidence for public health officials internationally to promote getting enough vitamin D either from sun or supplements as one of multiple measures to fight the virus. I really don't understand why they haven't already. Perhaps they think suggesting getting sun is in conflict with stay at home orders. Another thing they could do is promote blood tests to identify those with D deficiencies. Correcting that for those people could really save many lives.
