QUOTE BOARD “We investigated whether the coexistence of AO and vitamin D deficiency elevates the risk of death. Five thousand, five hundred twenty participants from the ELSA Study, aged ≥ 50 years, were followed for 6 years.” “The NAO/VDI [Non-Abdominal Obesity/Vit D Insufficiency] and NAO/VDD [Non-Abdominal Obesity/Vit D Deficiency] groups were associated with a 91% and 81% higher risk of death, respectively.” [Even without obesity, there is a massively significant increased risk of death with Vitamin D insufficiency and/or deficiency – in fact, as you will see in paragraph below, Vit D deficiency is associated with virtually double the risk of abdominal obesity]. “The AO/VDS [Abdominal Obesity/Vit D Sufficiency] and AO/VDI [Abdominal Obesity/Vit D Insufficiency] groups had a 47 and 50% higher mortality risk, respectively, compared to the NAO/VDS group. The highest mortality risk was observed in the AO/VDD group (HR 2.230).” [This means there is a 223% higher risk of death with combined obesity and Vitamin D Deficiency!!]. “Conclusions: AO combined with 25(OH)D deficiency increases mortality risk in older adults. Early identification and management of these conditions could reduce this risk.” WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW “The coexistence of AO and vitamin D deficiency can have systemic consequences and increase the risk of death. Excess abdominal fat is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, insulin resistance, and oxidative stress. Moreover, low levels of 25(OH)D [Vit D] impair immune regulation and can heighten the inflammatory response, particularly in individuals with obesity.” You need to understand that, as I have repeatedly mentioned and shown with peer-reviewed evidence, chronic systemic inflammation and chronic insulin resistance or high blood sugar are at the root of virtually every chronic illness. It is IMPERATIVE to understand that your body cannot resolve inflammation or prevent chronic inflammation without sufficient intake of Vitamin D and Omega-3 fatty acids. These two essential nutrients are required to regulate and control your immune and inflammatory systems and it is virtually impossible to get sufficient intake of these nutrients in today’s industrial society without supplementation – this is exactly why I created OmegA+D Sufficiency™! WHAT YOU NEED TO DO Ensure you get sufficient amounts of these nutrients, in the right synergistic combination, in the most natural, purest, highest quality form as delivered by the Innate Choice® Essential Nutrient System™.
