Introduce mandatory fortification of certain foods with Vitamin D3.
Address the rate of vitamin D insufficiency in the UK, which is highest amongst BAME and elderly individuals. These individuals are also most at risk of COVID-19 complications. Fortification of certain foods with Vitamin D3 could alleviate a number of health conditions.
Research suggests that Vitamin D insufficiency may impact COVID-19 progression/mortality. Vitamin D insufficiency has a major impact on public health, with links to many conditions such as; hypertension, cardiovascular disease and immune issues. Public Health England recommended intake of Vitamin D is not currently usually met by synthesis, dietary or supplemental use. Vitamin D fortification is common in Northern European countries.
