According to the study, higher levels of vitamin D have been associated with less severe cases when it comes to COVID.
According to Deborah Shoemark, PhD, Senior Research Associate (Biomolecular Modelling) in the University of Bristol School of Biochemistry and lead author of the study, “Obesity is a major risk factor for severe COVID. Vitamin D is fat-soluble and tends to accumulate in fatty tissue. This can lower the amount of vitamin D available to obese individuals.”
As Deborah Shoemark has explained, when your vitamin D levels are adequate in the bloodstream, it might actually attach to the coronavirus protein spike and prevent it from infecting the cells.
