Nitric Oxide’s Role In Anti-Adhesion And Anti-Coagulation.

13 December 2021

Background. SARS-CoV-2’s Achilles’ heel has always been vitamin D in general and nitric oxide in particular. We first explained the relevance of vitamin D in July 2020, identifying the correlation between vitamin D deficiency and COVID-19 mortality rates and the key role of exposure to photosynthesis of vitamin D from exposure to UVB that occurs […]

Cathelicidin – Another Key Benefit Of Vitamin D.

29 October 2021

Background. It is impossible to ignore the pivotal role of vitamin D both in preventing SARS-CoV-2 viral infection (through the eNOS→nitric oxide pathway) and in reducing COVID-19 disease severity (through the cholecalciferol→ calcifediol→calcitriol pathway). As early as July 2020 we had identified the positive correlation between COVID-19 mortality rate and vitamin D deficiency. By October […]

Why Is Nitric Oxide’s Key Role Ignored?

28 July 2021

Role In The Innate Immune Response. It is a year since we first identified the significance of vitamin D in respect of SARS-CoV-2. Through the vitamin D pathways it can both prevent viral infection and attenuate disease progression and severity. Yet the role of vitamin D-modulated nitric oxide remains largely ignored and dismissed by the NHS as […]

COVID-19: The Western Diet Disease.

14 July 2021

The Poorer The Country, The Lower The Mortality Rate. This is the first pandemic in history where ‘poorer’ countries fare better, usually far better, then ‘richer’ ones. The more developed the country; industrialised the economy; advanced the healthcare system; widespread the adoption of Western lifestyle & diet, the higher the total deaths and in most […]

The lack of sunlight. Yet another reason why lockdown has made the situation far worse.

6 July 2020

This is something about which we have been writing for months and now with every passing day, there is an increasing body of evidence that shows lockdown was not only ineffective – and therefore unnecessary – but also that it made the situation worse. Worse as in it was responsible for the deaths of thousands, […]
