10,000+ Vitamins - Direct To Members from Seacoast Vitamins Study Reveals Vitamin D More Effective than Flu Vaccine According to a recent study in Japan, good old, natural Vitamin D is better than the flu vaccine! Vitamin D Study in Japan It now appears there is proof that Vitamin D is better at preventing flu than vaccinations. The risk of children suffering from flu can be halved if they take vitamin D, doctors in Japan have found. The finding has implications for flu epidemics since vitamin D, which is naturally produced by the human body when exposed to direct sunlight, has no significant side effects, costs little and can be several times more effective than anti-viral drugs or vaccine. Only one in ten children, aged six to 15 years, taking the sunshine vitamin in a clinical trial came down with flu compared with one in five given a dummy tablet. Mitsuyoshi Urashima, the Japanese doctor who led the trial, told The Times that vitamin D was more effective than vaccines in preventing flu. Vitamin D was found to be even more effective when the comparison left out children who were already given extra vitamin D by their parents, outside the trial. Taking the sunshine vitamin was then shown to reduce the risk of flu to a third of what it would otherwise be. Altogether 354 children took part in the trial, which took place during the winter of 2008-09, before the swine flu epidemic. Vitamin D was found to protect against influenza A, which caused last years epidemic, but not against the less common influenza B. The trial, which was double blind, randomized, and fully controlled scientifically, was conducted by doctors and scientists from Jikei University School of Medicine in Tokyo, Japan. The children were given a daily dose of 1200 IUs (international units) of vitamin D over a period of three months. In the first month children in the group taking the vitamin became ill just as often as those taking the dummy tablet. But by the second month, when the vitamin level in the childrens blood was higher, the advantage of the vitamin was clear. The Japanese scientists, writing in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, say that the anti-viral drugs zanamivir and oseltamivir reduce risk of flu infection by 8 per cent in children who have been exposed to infection, compared with a 50 per cent or greater reduction with vitamin D. |

I spread it for good 24hours in a shade, since they said shade and not under sun. People, the thing still pepper me and my daughter O... My face is on fire, my body swollen. My 1yr 1month daughter just they scratch body through the night like say na chloroquine. The funny thing i spread it because I took my time to read it unlike the other one I got 2years ago, we used it immediately and no peppery sensation, Same MAGnet product. This one I followed instructions of course cos my neighbour said something about spreading in sun. I have removed it and put it under sun this morning but my body still dey pepper me. |
