Vitamin D Deficiency 

"Vitamin D" deficiency can be linked to sicknesses and issues like Dementia, Prostate Cancer, Schizophrenia, Erectile Dysfunction, and Heart Disease. Instances where kids suffering from Asthma and Dermatitis were treated to full recoveries. Symptoms of the deficiency include a lack of muscle tone, disproportionately large head and forehead, and delayed infant milestones like sitting up, standing, and appearance of teeth.  

Vitamin D & Pregnancy 

  • Mothers who took 4,000 IU's (ten times the RDA of 400 IU) of vitamin D during pregnancy had their risk of premature birth reduced by half
  • Premature babies born to women taking high doses of vitamin D were reduced by half at both 32 and 37 weeks, and There were also fewer babies who were born "small for dates"
  • Women taking high doses of vitamin D had a 25 per cent reduction in infections, particularly respiratory infections such as colds and flu as well as fewer infections of the vagina and the gums
  • The "core morbidities of pregnancy" were reduced by 30 per cent in the women who took the high-dose vitamin D. (Including diabetes, high blood pressure, and pre-eclampsia – a potentially deadly increase in blood pressure and fluid)
  • Babies getting the highest amounts of vitamin D after birth had fewer colds and less eczema
