    I am a white pale girl and I lived in Washington state USA for 18 years and when my Vitamin D was tested my level was 4. My Dr. said OMG. I was put on supplements and I noticed I had more energy, better mood, and rarely got sick. It has changed my life

    My husband was prescribed Vit D after a bone marrow transplant for AML leukemia. He still takes thus three years later, and I have been taking a supplement since reading your advice, Dr. John. What an interesting interview. Please keep in touch with Rahul in case news about Covid in India goes underground, a great contact, and sympathetic person.

    Around 5 years ago I had muscle spasms around my heart. After some blood tests it turned out that my vitD levels where shockingly low. I was given a shock dose and was told to carry on taking vitamin D for as long as I live in the UK. The spasms stopped and ever since any cold/flu that I get is over in about 2-3 days (I used to suffer with these for at least a week if not two before that!). I didn't really make the connection until recently, I was just happy I was doing better when it came to respiratory infections. Great job John & Rahul for spreading the word! Such a small thing that can potentially make a big difference (also easy to test)

    Logically, EVERY person who has a Covid test should have Vitamin D, Magnesium, Zinc, etc checked at the same time.

    Thank you John! Really appreciate you trying to reach out to Indians and help. What Rahul said of India having possibly the biggest casualties of this pandemic, that is also my worst fear. I hope your advice reaches the right people and saves many lives. Keep up the great work!

    Oh My Gosh, I just can't get over how good this video is. The sheer level of bringing expertise together between these two. Such help. Such goodness to help people and humanity. Just adore seeing everyone digging down deep to see how they can put their own expertise in to help.

    My doctor wrote me off when I kept asking to have my vitamin d levels checked and then apologized when my levels came back at 10 and should have been at 80. She figured because I was a young white woman living in Phoenix I couldn't possibly be deficient. I used to always get bronchitis and sinus infections galore until I got my levels up. It's insane how many doctors in the US think vitamin d is non essential.
