ADK & Immune Boosting

As a medical provider, one way you can help "flatten the curve" of the Coronavirus is by ensuring that patients are getting the correct nutrients to support a healthy immune system. Both vitamins A and D are essential nutrients that help support the body's immune response.

Studies have established the role of vitamin A in regenerating the mucosal membrane in the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, eyes, and genitals, which helps serve as a barrier to infection. Vitamin A is also instrumental in boosting the production of white blood cells, which help clear infections from the bloodstream.

Vitamin D is essential in maintaining innate and adaptive immune responses and may support the antimicrobial properties of mucus membranes. Although the mechanism is not clearly established, vitamin D is known to have anti-viral effects. In 2017, a large prospective trial showed taking vitamin D can reduce the odds of developing respiratory infections by approximately 42%.
