Vitamin D, again
Jump to: Newest in thread
Seeing as Vitamin D is cheap as chips, compared to the billions being spent elsewhere, is there not a case for a government distribution scheme to all households?
My back of envelope calculation suggests a total cost less than £200 million for everyone in the country to have a years supply? |

Holland and Barrett D3 10ug (200% of daily needed amount) 100 tablets @ £3.59 get another for 1p.
So thats over 6 months supply for £3.60.

It’s not so much the cost of the vitamin, I’m thinking more about it being a government campaign to raise awareness, envelopes through doors, like when they put condoms through the letterbox for the eighties AIDS campaigns. |

Comments like this make me laugh when you just throw everyone who’s currently struggling with money into the same category as the people who take the p*ss. Not everyone is the same, and when we’re currently in a pandemic where people are losing jobs or being furloughed and struggling to manage maybe they don’t have an extra £3 odd for some vitamins... |

Well that’s my point really, cost / benefit, but I wanted to be clear that there is of course an upfront cost in giving out Vitamin D.
Kind of assuming also that there would be health benefits against other viruses, improvement in general well-being etc, |

Unfortunately it is not straight forward- - Vit D is a fat soluble vitamin unlike for example Vit C which is water soluble and flushed out with urine.
Vitamin D toxicity, also called hypervitaminosis D, is a rare but potentially serious condition that occurs when you have excessive amounts of vitamin D in your body. Vitamin D toxicity is usually caused by large doses of vitamin D supplements — not by diet or sun exposure.
So it needs weighing up, especially for people who already take a daily multivitamin. |

So someone is divorced and left with nothing, that’s their poor decision? Someone struggles with serious mental health, that’s their poor decision? A person goes on furlough and is suddenly earning a lot less and falls behind on payments, that’s their poor decision? It’s the people that haven’t been in the same positions that can’t see it from the other point of view. |

It works out at 1.8p per day, 12.6p per week.
As a single person who if on benefits would at most get £70 a week i think somehow i could manage that particularly if it meant potentially increasing my chances of surviving Covid. |

Far as I can see, toxic levels of Vitamin D would be taking at least three times the normal strongest dose (4000 IU).
Not saying there wouldn’t be a few wallys taking too much, there probably already are, but hard to see it wouldn’t be a big net benefit in reduction of Covid severity. |

£70 goes a long way when you think about water rates gas electricity 20% of council tax Bill's mobile phone...yes they are needed...food cleaning costs and dare I say it...the occasional new pair of shoes or clothes.
Yep that 70 quid can quite easily take another hit  |

So in your example i would forgo the mobile phone as its not needed.
If i did need one for contact purpose i would get a basic handset for calls and texts only.
I have lived through hardship, for several years living still at home with parents i was the only wage earner which also had to support a brother and sister as well as myself and parents, It was not a big wage. |

Maybe the government should fund the vit d for the people on £70 benefits and let the working population pay the £3 for it themselves. If it helps people fight covid infection then it would be beneficial to the health service in the end. |

Time people listened.
I’ve taken vit c and zinc for about 6 years to help my immune but started on the vit d in March after being ill for 3 months, so far so good, also put the whole family on it. |

The government won't even approve free meals for children whom may be in need of them during lockdown, whilst they sit and eat heavily subsidised meals and drink heavily subsidised alcohol in their bars that will REMAIN open during lockdown.
Providing vitamin D is never going to happen. |

I've been in all of those positions except furlough and yes people should first and foremost take care of health and if it means vitD then vitD it should be at 3.60 for 6 months.
IMHO even the furlough people did make bad decisions yes, they shouldn't bite off more than they can chew.
