[QUOTE="Mastodont, post: 229973, member: 43770"] That study states just that, preventing a cytokine storm is suppressing the too harsh immune reaction. As you also quoted above; "Deficiency in vitamin D is associated with increased autoimmunity and an increased susceptibility to infection." So it might again be correlation not causation, also if you screen people seeking medical attention you will probably find many with low levels. Short term use of hormone d in isolation, in larger doses or whatever, to suppress an autoimmune reaction might be a good idea, many also seem to benefit from antihistamines like loratadine when their FLU(rip) lingers on. In general i would not try to always block the flu, i believe it has a function. Chronic use of isolated d in doses seems to potentially have many downsides, even though those schoolchildren did not show signs in the selected parametres, as i understand it ionized calcium should be measured, and DHVD may not be sufficient by itself: " [HEADING=1]Interpretation[/HEADING] 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D (DVHD) concentrations are low in chronic renal failure and hypoparathyroidism. DVHD concentrations are high in sarcoidosis and other granulomatous diseases, some malignancies, primary hyperparathyroidism, and physiologic hyperparathyroidism. DVHD concentrations are not a reliable indicator of vitamin D toxicity; normal (or even low) results may be seen in such cases." [URL unfurl="true"]https://endocrinology.testcatalog.org/show/DHVD[/URL] Also those kids probably have their system running flawlessly to maintain balance(they probably did not have low D which suggests they were healthy), whereas adults deficient in hormone d levels probably have health issues that might affect how exogenous things work. Again possible correlation not causation. Thanks anyway, interesting and noted. [/QUOTE]
