Vitamin D - Your health DEPENDS on it!

Vitamin D - Your health depends on it!

On the occasion of the 5th Nutrition Symposium of the Federal District, I had the pleasure of being invited by the Organizing Committee to deliver the keynote address “Vitamin D Deficiency: an Epidemic in Brazil, a Tropical Country” and, while preparing it, I came across several texts and videos that, in my opinion, everyone should watch and draw their own conclusions...

Mainly because I don't know if you know it, but vitamin D:

• It's a hormone that has been mistakenly “classified” as a vitamin.

• More than 70% of the world's population is lacking (it is estimated) and in winter this shortage reaches even worse levels.

• It affects more than 200 processes in the body, meaning that its deficiency affects everything from mood and the immune system to blood pressure and the risk of heart attacks.

• It should be “manufactured” by adequate exposure to the sun and without filters, but as we do this less and less...

• It can hardly be supplied by adequate nutrition alone.

• Its levels are rarely assessed in “traditional” routine tests.

• The “daily needs” and supplementation limits established by official bodies are scientifically proven to be inadequate because they are insufficient for most patients.

• It is still “unknown” or even neglected by many health professionals.

In short, if you have a symptom, disorder or disease, whatever it may be, it could be aggravated or even caused by vitamin D deficiency.

For all these reasons, do yourself a big favor - access, read and watch:

After all, let's reflect: what makes us most ill is a lack of information about our own health (especially how to take care of it, recover it and maintain it) or neglecting to know and practice it!

“The difference between the wise and the ignorant is the same as between the living and the dead.” (Aristotle)

“Advice is very poorly received by those who need it most, the ignorant.” (Leonardo da Vinci)

“There is only one darkness: ignorance.” (William Shakespeare)
