Vitamin D Deters Cold And Flu

Vitamin D could be the extra boost to battling the common cold and flu.

Researchers examined the relationship between vitamin D and respiratory infections. Results showed that people with low blood vitamin D levels had significantly more incidents of flu or colds. This effect may be even more pronounced in patients with asthma and emphysema.

As clinical trials have not been run, researchers are hesitant to recommend vitamin D to help prevent colds and flu.
