Ever notice how the flu and colds decline during the warmer weather?

Think it's because people get outside more? That's true, but do you know the REAL reason why?

Ever notice how you feel physically better in the warmer weather?

Do you know the REAL reason why? Do you go outside?

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is hugely important to your immune system!

As many as 75% of Americans are Vitamin D deficient. Vitamin D deficiency soars in the U.S.

Vitamin D Deficiency - An Ignored Epidemic This article gives good information about other diseases lack of Vitamin D leads to and how much time in the sun and foods that are good for increasing Vitamin D levels.

Do you slather on the sunscreen before going out the door everyday because you were WARNED about getting skin cancer? And, sunscreen blocks your body's ability to produce the vitamin D from exposure to the sun's rays. (Not to mention all the chemicals that they all contain - read the labels!)

3 Common Causes of Vitamin D Deficiency

With more people working indoors due to technology advancing and strapping them to their desks, and our children spending more time indoors due to computers, video games, television, etc., it is not surprising that the Vitamin D levels are getting worse.

Prevention

Exposure to sunshine each day helps human body to manufacture the required amount of vitamin D. However, due to fear of developing skin cancer most people avoid the sun exposure. To prevent vitamin D deficiency, one should spend 15 to 20 minutes daily in the sunshine with 40% of the skin surface exposed. High concentration of melanin in the skin slows the production of vitamin D; similarly aging greatly reduces skin production of vitamin D. Use of sunblock, common window glass in homes or cars and clothing, all effectively block UVB radiation – even in the summer. People who work indoors, wear extensive clothing, regularly use sunblock, are dark skinned, obese, aged or consciously avoid the sun, are at risk of vitamin D deficiency.

So if you're concerned about preventing colds and the flu, and you want to give your immune system a good boost... get into the sunlight!

Let us speak to and interview some recovery patients?

22690223? ago

It’s prolly the flu SHOT that kills ‘em.

23362988? ago

DOD confirmed in a study that flu shots increase Chinese flu risks

Evil shall not come near you and disease shall not come near your dwellings, Psalm. 91:10

Psalm 121:7-8 The LORD keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.

Proverbs 1:33-34 but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.” My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you,

Psalm 46:1-2 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luke 10:19

22688863? ago

it's not "either or"... its "and" now....

22688798? ago

Do you see misting foggers driving the streets of China, spraying disinfectant, each flu season? How about destroying their physical money from certain cities? What about walking thru offices and fogging every surface and worker? Or isolating entire cities... Over the flu?

22688978? ago

They didn't do that during the 2009 swine flu outbreak and 250,000 to 500,000 people are believed to have died as a result. Since then WHO et. al. have developed extreme protocols and those are what are being implemented now.

If this was another "just the flu" pandemic they would do the same thing. Yes. 100%

22689024? ago

Would these measures would not work against the flu, that is killing many, many, many thousands of people each year? Would these measures not be beneficial to combat the flu? if so, then why do you see no actions taken against the flu, yet a few hundred die from this new virus outbreak, and we're told it's not that big a deal, and yet it's like a scorched-earth policy?

22688548? ago

The case fatality rate is still much lower (10x) than coronavirus.

22688996? ago

Fatality rate during the 2009 swine flu pandemic was 10% to 20% (depending on what numbers you use).

22689786? ago

Indeed, but there were FAR fewer cases, and the R0 was also way less.

22688506? ago

lol it's just a flu bro, lick a Chinese coofer or you are racist.

22688245? ago

Flu has already spread worldwide.

Flu has a centurys long head start.

Flu isn't a bio-weapon

22689359? ago

But like anything, it has the potential to be weaponized. Whether or not that is the case with corona, who knows. POTUS doesn't seem to be that worried though, and I'm guessing he is fully informed on info we ourselves don't have.

22689679? ago

Yes, he's informed on the potentially even greater risk of panic. It's far better to let (tens of) thousands die of corona than to induce a panic that would kill an extra few million, and destroy our economy. That's doesn't mean you can't die from it.

23362998? ago

The economy is already done for. Riots and starvation soon.

23363072? ago

Once they stop delivering food supplies to stores, we're pretty screwed.

23363929? ago

“We” are not, but many are. My livestock and garden, and plentiful wildlife will feed me and my friends. Being a prepper and living in the country won’t be such a hillbilly notion after this. Let the cities burn.

23372251? ago

Unless that happens world wide, the Chinese (or other) will want to have a word with you.

22688239? ago

That is irrelevant. Flu doesn't kill otherwise healthy people, only those already weakened by age or other condition. If the infection only kills people already too weak to be working or providing for a family, it has little effect on the world.

If Corona virus is a bio weapon, then it is designed to kill healthy people, because otherwise it would be useless as a weapon.

We had a scientific paper submitted that claimed there were elements of HIV in it. Then that paper was withdrawn. Then we had a geneticist claim that there was evidence of gene manipulation in the dna of the virus. Then that was walked back.

China claims the healthy young whistleblower doctor died of it. He would never have died of the flu.

Let's talk about the flu. It kills 0.1% of those infected. That is one in one thousand. The flu infects 60,000,000 Americans every year, or 60,000.

What happens if Corona virus kills 2% of healthy people it infects? What if it is as contagious as the flu? That would be 1.2 million healthy Americans dead.

Don't give me this shit about Flu stats. We don't know what Corona virus is, if it was engineered and for what purpose. We don't know if it really does kill healthy robust people. We don't know the true percentage that die.

I believe my President that they know what they are doing. But don't you dare tell me to write this off as a nothingburger when we don't know shit about it. The details matter. They make all the difference in the world.

22690819? ago

Very well said/written. My exact sentiments.

China cannot save face. Experts HAVE to get to ground zero. Send them. Show it.

All these weeks and you only videos of foreigners "trapped" in Wuhan?

22689174? ago

POTUS seems about 100x more calm than you.

22690769? ago

Reeeeeee

tarded.

22689610? ago

You seem slightly retarded.

22689358? ago

That is a good thing. I believe him.

What irritates me is this attempt to use flu statistics to tell me that Coronavirus is not a threat. We need more information before that argument makes any sense. Specifically, we need to know if Coronavirus kills otherwise heathy people, and we need an accurate number for the death rate. We also need to know if people recover are they no longer contagious? Are they immune from it after recovery?

22688846? ago

We had a scientific paper submitted that claimed there were elements of HIV in it. Then that paper was withdrawn. Then we had a geneticist claim that there was evidence of gene manipulation in the dna of the virus. Then that was walked back.

and about 8 different grad student types who have ciper machines on their desktop have also confirmed this at various times in the last two weeks.

22687770? ago

Has the regular flu ever caused China to stop sending cargo containers full of everything to the US?

22688575? ago

...or put brick walls across their roads...or quarantine millions of citizens?

22689626? ago

Hundreds of millions, actually. Was getting close to a billion recently.

22687767? ago

And we have vaccines for the flu.

Go figure.

22687877? ago
