Are You Taking Vitamin D (and Other Vitamins) For COPD?

A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭
Somerville, TN

I have been reading about the importance of vitamin D in particular and vitamin C. My husband, who has a different pulmonary doctor than I do was prescribed a high dose of vitamin D and it comes as a prescription. My doctor has not prescribed it for me. I will talk to my doctor about it next time I go, but I wondered if any or all of you guys were also taking vitamin D as it is supposed to be good for lung function and excaberation prevention. If you are taking it......how much?

I've had the injections also, and it was more convenient than pills. I intend to ask my new doctor about it. Thanks.

Are vitamins beneficial? I take B12 and D3 . I feel better, however, my internist said she only recommends D3.. my CBC (blood) is normal.

I’m at the severe stage and would like, at least to be able to get the oxygen to my lungs. I can only hope that someone has an answer to my problem or at least some ideas as to what to do.
I thank you for reading my post.

Helpful Vitamins/Supplements

A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭
Gilbert, AZ

Hello all! Was wondering if any of you take daily vitamins and/or supplements that possibly help at all with breathing easier and just with symptoms in general? If so- how MUCH do you take daily? It’s very hard to find information on dosage and what actually helps online. So far I keep seeing things about:

d3, k2, b12, a, e, c, zinc, magnesium, NAC, coq10, fish oil, rso oil, and apple cider vinegar.

Also apparently sipping on osha root and/or ginger tea throughout the day as it can help thin… read more
