I don’t know but you may be right.

One thing I HAVE been able to confirm is that Vitamin D WILL play a role in keeping the flu at bay.

I gotta see if I can dig that one up. Organization isn’t my strong suit.

:(

I’m a huge proponent of vitamin D and it’s okay as far as immune response. I have MS and they don’t want you taking things that boost the immune system, like echinacea, but they insist on keeping vitamin D levels up. My neuro does vitamin D tests and if my vitamin D levels get low I go on a high dose (50,000 units per week) and then back off to 2,000 per day. I didn’t know that about vitamin D and it’s flu connection though. Thanks for the info.
