Helping fight flu

[preacherchild]

I want to take Vitamin D b/c I have read that it helps to fight the flu. My primary care doc also recommended it. What is the best brand/type to take? Any liquid forms of it?

the sun and if you don't have sun where you live an infrared sauna. you won't have much success getting it from a pill and besides that isn't what you should do when you have the flu

have you heard the old saying to 'starve a fever?'. well it works. water fast until your flu is gone, it works and has been done for thousands of years

I'm not sure supplementing vitamin D will work to fight off an influenza infection. Any quality vitamin d pill will help if your blood tests show you low though

Stevesmi has you covered.

Most of the people get the flu during the winter whatever they do.
I mix some tea with squeezed lemon and honey, that seems to help when sick.

Just regular ole vitamin C no need to overthink it.

Sun is a must, vitamin D is really important, many people underate it..

the sun is the best thing you can get, why you wouldn't go to take some sun and relax after gym?
