It is time to get your vitamin D checked!!! If you are a current patient, reach out to me and I will send you a lab order form. If you want a doctor who looks at your whole health including nutrition, set up a free fifteen minute consultation with me so we can get started.

Free 25(OH)D is a stronger predictor of all-cause mortality than total 25(OH)D in older men. Free 1.25(OH)2D, the biologically active metabolite, was not predictive of all-cause mortality.

This is the preschool that our girls attend. There is a huge outdoor space with plenty of room for social distancing and outdoor school. If you know anyone with preschool kids, I can’t recommend this school and it’s staff more highly. They are amazing at teaching kids through play based learning! We love them!

Here is some interesting new science being put to work to protect against COVID19.

UCSF scientists have devised a novel approach to halting the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the disease.

Remember to take breaks from anything or anyone who stresses you out, take a night off from the news, take a bath away from the kids, read a book!

Low plasma vitamin D levels emerged as an independent risk factor for COVID-19 infection and hospitalization in a large, population-based study.

“Participants positive for COVID-19 were 50% more likely to have low vs normal 25(OH)D levels in a multivariate analysis that controlled for other confounders, for example.

“The take home message for physicians is to "test patients' vitamin D levels and keep them optimal for the overall health — as well as for a better immuno-response to COVID-19," senior author Milana Frenkel-Morgenstern, PhD, head of the Cancer Genomics and BioComputing of Complex Diseases Lab at Bar-Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel, told Medscape Medical News.”

A large study evaluates associations between low serum vitamin D levels and risks for acquiring COVID-19 and hospitalization.

A reminder to myself as much as to you!

In the spirit of summer, let this be a good reminder for all of us all to invite more moments of ease and relaxation into our daily lives.

Of the many things we miss from our pre-pandemic lives, hugging may top the list. We asked scientists who study airborne viruses to teach us the safest way to hug.

So proud of the work we do.
