  3. Warum ist die Bezeichnung „Vitamin D“ eigentlich doppelt falsch? 🧐 Und wie genau hilft uns Vitamin A beim Sehen?
    In der neuen Folge #Wirkstoffradio tauchen Hans-Dieter Höltje und Bernd Rupp (@Rupi42ai) tief in die #Chemie der fettlöslichen Vitamine A, D und E ein.

  5. CW: Vitamin A and iron status

  6. CW: Vitamin A and iron status

    Effect of vitamin A supplementation on iron status in humans: A systematic review and meta-analysis [2018]
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/293365

    "Therefore, vitamin A supplementation alone may reduce the risk of anemia, by improving hemoglobin and ferritin levels in individuals with low serum retinol levels."

  7. #NationalAcademies What we all knew already, once again confirmed by #science: #VitaminA may lessen the severity of #measles in vulnerable children, but it won’t prevent infection. Only #vaccination provides true protection. nap.us4.list-manage.com/track/

    Pro Tip: You don't want to megadose fat-soluble #vitamins (A, D, E & K). Bad things will happen. This is well known, well documented FACT.

    Fun Fact: Early European polar explorers died of #VitaminA overdoses after eating #polarbear #liver.

    "Studies indicate vitamin A levels in polar bear liver can reach 15,000 to 30,000 IU per gram, compared to the recommended daily intake of 3,000 IU for men and 2,333 IU for women, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Even a small portion can cause acute toxicity."

  9. "Lara Anton, spokesperson for state health dept, said her office refused the shipment from HHS 'because healthcare providers have not requested it from us.' Kennedy also said that he believes budesonide, clarithromycin, or cod-liver oil can treat measles, but the health department apparently doesn’t want those either."

  10. "RFK Jr. told Fox earlier this month that he was delivering vitamin A to measles-stricken communities in West Texas immediately. But a Texas health official told The Atlantic that no doses of vitamin A ever arrived at the state health department—not because RFK Jr. broke his promise, but because Texas doctors didn’t want them."

  11. #Ivermectin was found to help #COVID patients...

    patients with parasites

    #Ignorance spread "the cure" without the whole picture

    Likewise, #VitaminA was found to help #Measles patients...

    patients with vitamin A deficiency

    And so, ignorance once again:

    "West #Texas children treated for vitamin A toxicity as #medical #disinformation spreads alongside measles outbreak"

    People think they know better than #scientists and #doctors, and harm themselves and their children

  12. So, as someone who used to work for a New Age newspaper back in the late 90's / early 2000's, I've seen my share of #NewAgeQuackery. And as someone who has looked at studies about #VitaminA and the immune system, and who has been tested for low levels and brought them up, and has seen the results firsthand... All I can say is VITAMIN A IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR AN #MMR SHOT! WTF! Especially with breakthrough cases! Get your shots updated! #MeaslesAreNoJoke and can cause real damage!

  13. “Remedy Supported by Kennedy Leaves Some Measles Patients More Ill. After the health secretary promoted vitamin A as a cure, parents in West Texas began giving their children high doses, sometimes to prevent infection”

  14. #VitaminA does not prevent #measles. In patients who are deficient—most aren't—*supervised* supplementation may help lessen the severity, and that's all. It's easy to overdose. The best protection is #vaccination.

    Our brains keep us alive. Use yours.

  15. #RFKjr needs to visit all of these #Texas and #NewMexico #Measles patients to lend support and prove that a #MeaslesOutbreak can be resisted by his superior immune system and #VitaminA suppliments.
    Come on, bitch. Put your money where your big, rich, entitled, White mouth is.

    "They’re often given cod liver oil..."

    "Cod liver oil is incredibly nutritious. A single teaspoon provides 150% of the daily value for #VitaminA "

    Vitamin A

    I'm sure #RFKjr would be pleased

  17. #Ernährung
    Vergleich der tatsächlichen Mikronährstoffzufuhr mit den #DGE-Referenz-werten. Hervorgehoben sind die #Nährstoffe, bei denen besonders viele #Menschen die Zufuhrempfehlungen nicht erreichen.

    Der Blick auf die #Jodversorgung zeigt, dass eine annähernd gute Versorgung nur erreicht werden kann, wenn Sie durchgehend #Jodsalz verwenden. In Deutschland ist die Verwendung von Jodsalz durch die Lebensmittelindustrie allerdings nicht gesetzlich vorgeschriebendaher enthalten bei uns nur 9% aller Fertiglebensmittel #Salz, das mit #Jod angereichert ist. Die Alternative-also der Verzehr von 2 bis 3 Portionen #Seefisch pro Woche-ist ökologisch (#Überfischung) und ernährungstoxikologisch (#Schadstoffbelastung) nicht unbedingt empfehlenswert"
