維生素D是否有助於抵抗COVID-19? 醫生鼓勵服用補充劑來幫助抵抗病毒
17 April 2020, 10:57
克里斯博士鼓勵美國採用維生素D作為抗擊COVID-19的一種方法,儘管人們強調強調它不會阻止您感染該病毒。
'This Morning's' Dr Chris has encouraged the nation to take vitamin D as a way to help fight COVID-19, although it has been emphasised it won't prevent you from catching the virus.
Dr Chris, This Morning's resident doctor, has revealed the importance of taking vitamin D as a way to help your immune system fight COVID-19, admitting he takes the supplement every day.

克里斯,今天上午的住院醫生,已經透露了服用維生素D作為幫助您的免疫系統抵抗COVID-19是一種重要性方法,他承認他每天都在服用維生素D。

People most commonly get vitamin D through sunlight, which fortunately the UK has had plenty of lately, although many haven't been able to access it as the nation is urged to stay indoors to flatten the curve of the virus.
Dr Chris told Eamonn and Ruth: "Vitamin D is made in your skin and in the action of sunshine."
Using evidence from a research paper to help support his argument, he said:
"Vitamin D deficiency is common - we recommend that those at risk of coronavirus urgently supplement with Vitamin D to enhance their resistance to Covid-19."
"This advice is to be extended to the general adult public."
人們最常通過陽光獲取維生素D,幸運的是,最近英國有了很多維生素D,儘管許多人仍無法獲得維生素D,因為該國被敦促留在室內拉平病毒的曲線。
克里斯博士告訴伊蒙和露絲:“維生素D是在皮膚和陽光的作用下製成的。”
“我們都缺乏維生素D,我們應該服用維生素D。” 他說,利用研究論文的證據來支持他的論點:
“維生素D缺乏症很常見,我們建議那些患有冠狀病毒的人緊急補充維生素D以增強其對Covid-19的抵抗力。”這一建議將擴大到普通成年人。”
維生素D不能保護您免於感染病毒,但可以幫助您的身體抵抗病毒。
他繼續舉例說明增強免疫力的食物,例如“酸奶腸”,“香蕉”和“豆”以及D3補品。
NHS網站提供了有關建議的人攝入維生素D補充劑的安全劑量的詳細信息。

維生素D與COVID-19
以下這篇有關維生素D與COVID-19的研究是篇preprint letter,還沒經過peer reviewed.
此研究提供了212例COVID-19患者的維生素D血清數據,及比較疾病嚴重程度與維生素D之間的關聯。
所有病例均已確診為COVID-19,並歸類如下:
輕度 --表現為輕度的臨床症狀
普通 –出現發燒,呼吸道症狀和確診為肺炎
嚴重 –缺氧和呼吸窘迫的病例
急症 –呼吸衰竭需要重症監護
A) 49例(23%)屬於輕症,平均維生素D為31ng /ml(78 nmol / L)
B) 59例(28%)被歸類為普通,平均維生素D為27ng /ml(68 nmol / L)
C) 56例(26%)被分類為嚴重,平均維生素D為21 ng /ml(53 nmol / L)
D) 48例(23%)被分類為急症,平均維生素D為17 ng / ml(43 nmol / L)
維生素D水平正常的患者中,所有病例中的86%為輕度,而維生素D缺乏的患者中有73%為嚴重或急症。
研究者認為血清維生素D水平越低,臨床癒後越不好。
