I don't have any questions, I just wanted to thank you for bringing life back to me.
I was so sick and now I am feeling as good as I did twenty years ago! It has been a long battle: no energy, aches and pains going from one
Dr. to the next. They told me it was anything from arthritis to depression; they had me on steroids for three years... All behind me now!
I just don't know how to thank you. I think it would be wonderful if you could just be everywhere with your caring heart. Information and the
real reason behind all of the bad, sick days that so many of us have had.
Sincerely, Jessica...@telusplanet.net

A new study done in Japan shows that taking Vitamin D Supplements during the winter and early spring could help avert flu and asthma attacks in school children. Those who take Vitamin D are three times less likely to come down with flu and cold.
There were two groups in the study: those who took 1,200 IU of Vitamin D3 supplements daily, or an inactive placebo during cold and flu season. The Vitamin D group was 58% less likely to catch influenza A and also helped to minimize asthma attacks in children with asthma history. However, Vitamin D did not help to stop influenza type B, which occurs later in the flu season compared to influenza A. The researchers are unsure of the reason why the immune system fights the viruses in different ways. The main point is that eating lower calorie preloads of stevia or aspartame did not lead to eating more in other meals compared to when eating higher calorie preloads of sucrose.
Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is more potent and can be absorbed better by the body than Vitamin D2, ergocalciferol, which is normally found in multivitamins. Therefore, experts suggest that children take 1,200 IU per day of Vitamin D3 starting in September to prevent flu and asthma attacks during the flu season.
