The COVID-19 era we are living through has seen us more informed and concerned about our health and wellbeing than any other time in recent history.

With good reason, we now live our lives each day taking precautionary measures to protect ourselves and loved ones against contracting COVID

Today we are going to discuss 2 topics relating to COVID

Firstly, nutrition and how the use of vitamin D can help to combat Covid-19.

Secondly, the detection of Covid 19 in sewerage and what that means

To discuss we welcome our special guest Sarah Smith, Dietitian from Bayside Dietetics.

Sarah works in private a practice in Bayside Melbourne after working for an extensive period within a Monash Children’s Hospital. Today she is going to discuss the benefits of Vitamin D and also link between our poo, waste water and COVID-19. I know what you’re thinking, but stick with me on this one.

 

We ask Sarah questions including:

  1. What is the key (nutritional) thing we can do to help reduce our risk with Covid-19?
  2. I believe there has been a recent study in Spain that supports some of these results, can you explain what those results are?
  3. Is it worth supplementing with vitamin D to reduce my risk?
  4. Do you think there could be any link between this and the struggles that Melbourne has had with COVID?
  5. How can we ensure we’re getting enough sun exposure for adequate vitamin D levels while being Sun Smart?
  6. In your second article you speak at the wonders of the gut. You mention that there are scientists in Brisbane that have made a cleaver discovery but what is all this about Covid-19 in the sewerage? Can you please explain what this discovery is?
  7. You speak a lot about bugs and their relation to our lives, can you expand on this?
  8. How do bugs help our digestive system?
  9. How do the by-products keep us healthy then?
