Dr. John Cannell is convinced that the swine flu epidemic could be vastly curtailed with vitamin supplementation. (Cannell is the Executive Director of the Vitamin D Council, a non-profit organization dedicated to educating the public about the perils of vitamin D deficiency.) Anecdotal reports support vitamin D as flu preventive Cannell has been campaigning to get the NIH and CDC to investigate claims that vitamin D supplementation (2,000 to 5,000IU per day) confers virtual immunity against swine flu. As evidence, he presents reports from two physicians, one from a long-term care facility in Wisconsin and one with a private practice in Georgia. Both doctors use aggressive vitamin D supplementation with their patients--and both report that their patient populations were virtually untouched by flu when it swept through their facilities and practice communities. You can read testimonials from the physicians on the Vitamin D Council website.
