Silicon Valley Health Institute | “Vitamin D and Your Health- Carole Baggerly (April 2021) @SiliconValleyHealthInstitute | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
“Vitamin D and Your Health” is the presentation shared by Carole Baggerly at the April 13th, 2021 Zoom meeting of the Silicon Valley Health Institute.
Benefits of higher levels of vitamin D include a reduced risk of several diseases and health conditions. Vitamin D is instrumental in maintaining health. It can reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and help with unhealthy guts – three triggers to set one on a path towards chronic diseases. Studies have shown its associations with flu, pregnancy, athletic performance, autism, ADHD, dental caries, sleep, verbal fluency, cognitive decline, dementia, erectile dysfunction, testosterone, surgery recovery and overall mortality. Recent studies have shown it was helpful in covid patients, and this was even discussed in the UK parliament. The sun is a primary source of vitamin D. Other sources of vitamin D are supplements and diet although it is difficult to get much from diet, especially for vegans and vegetarians. Those most likely to have low levels of vitamin D include people who are indoors most of the time, especially at mid-day; dark skinned people and people over age 60.
