New Book – Beating the Enemy: How Vitamin D Could Help Fight COVID-19

NEW YORK, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- New cutting-edge self-help book, "How Vitamin D Could Help Fight COVID-19" (ISBN: 978-1716882661) just released by Shirley Amy BSC, offers readers a clear understanding of why getting enough vitamin D is so crucial during this pandemic.

Shirley highlights the recent research that shows that individuals with severe vitamin D deficiency, are twice as inclined to suffer major COVID-19 complications; and that vitamin D not only strengthens our immunity, it can protect us against acute respiratory infections.

In her book, which is geared to address the vitamin D deficiency in the US, Europe, and other parts of the world, Amy highlights recent research which indicates that vitamin D not only boosts our innate immune system (the first part of our body to detect invaders such as viruses, parasites, bacteria and toxins), but also prevents our immune system from becoming dangerously hyperactive (going haywire and creating a cytokine storm).

Amy notes that: "This means that, as some researchers state, if we have healthy vitamin D levels, we may be protected from having serious complications, or dying from COVID-19. Just upping our D to the recommended level, is very easy for everyone who has a deficiency, and it doesn't cost a dime to get some sun every day, as wearing a sunblock, which is recommended, still lets a small amount of UVB rays in."

She adds, "Moreover, we can put some vitamin D foods (including vitamin D enriched foods) in our cart; and if necessary, take a supplement (subject to any contra-indications to medication, and certain diseases, etc.), and having a doctor's approval. And very importantly, we should ensure that we do not take more than the recommended daily allowance."

"An estimated 1 billion people worldwide, across all ethnicities and age groups, have a vitamin D deficiency" [1] NIH - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK532266/.

Based on the latest science from top US institutions, including Harvard Medical School, Harvard Nutrition Source, and Yale Medicine, this short, easy-to-understand, 5 chapter book, is geared to show readers how they and their families and loved ones, can up their Vitamin D intake to the recommended level, via the sun, food, and/or a supplement.

About the Author

Shirley Amy BSC is a well-known English Holistic Health Guru & the author of four other books. These include the highly successful method: "The Winning Way to Quit Smoking," which includes de-stressing holistic supports such as aromatherapy and American-made Quit Tea, which help people resist the urge to light up. Shirley has been instrumental in helping people quit smoking during the pandemic, as robust evidence, such as that published in the journal, Lancet Respiratory Medicine (May 2020), implies that several mechanisms could raise the chance of smokers contracting respiratory tract infections.

Aaron Ozee Sends Bestselling Children’s Book ‘Regulus’ Into Space

CHICAGO, Ill. /ScoopCloud/ -- Space is an uncharted frontier equipped with mysteries beyond our understanding of what is or will ever be possible. Reaching outward for millions of miles from our planet, space may seem to be a dangerous vacuum to most but a bountiful expanse for those with opportunistic sight. Aaron Ozee, bestselling author of notable children's book, "Regulus" (ISBN: 9781387010790), has made waves in the realm of literature achieving wonders using his tyrannical king character to impact the imaginations of young readers around the globe.

From claiming bestseller status only a few weeks following original publication to being endorsed by favorited celebrities, "Regulus" carries momentum unlike any other titles on the market. Ozee knew the sky was the limit for his prized creation, or so he assumed, until inspiration struck encouraging him to explore options to send a printed copy of his infamous tale above the clouds to drift blissfully among the glistening stars.

Conducting extensive searches around the web gave Ozee the appropriate insight on how tricky sending objects into space can be using professional technologies let alone collecting materials required for achieving such a feat on your own.

After being quoted by organizations which can arrange flights using elite techniques for gargantuan sums, Ozee remained discouraged only to find a motivated space enthusiast, Thomas Niedballa, who had the means of turning his dream into reality. Niedballa is the founder of Orbit Pics, a private institution holding expertise in the art of high-altitude photography, which uses weather balloon devices to send payloads into the furthest extent of the atmosphere.

Ozee partnered with Niedballa shortly after their introduction to launch a printed copy of "Regulus" into space near his residence in the Province of Toronto in Ontario, Canada (from the shores of Lake Huron) on June 18, 2019.

Outfitted with a 4K Go Pro camera along with a quality GPS tracker, Niedballa coasted the printed copy of "Regulus" into the upper atmosphere reaching 100,000 feet. Upon the weather balloon exploding once it peaked at maximum elevation, the payload hurdled back to Earth where it was retrieved by Niedballa not far away from the launch grounds. Breathtaking footage was exported showcasing the attempt and the stunning beauty immortalized behind "Regulus" within the never-ending darkened void.

Aside from this attempt being a brilliant marketing stunt for sharing the words Ozee has written for developing minds, "Regulus" is the "First American Children's Book Sent Into Space" as well as the "First Self-Published Book Sent Into Space."

Lulu Press, the largest self-publishing firm in the world, has released manuscripts crafted by Ozee since 2011 with "Regulus" marked as his eleventh published title.

"Achieving something that humans once viewed as science fiction is more than a milestone in my life that will be held close to my heart for the remainder of my days but making history that will rattle across the ages is something far greater," says Ozee.

"My sincere appreciation goes to my family, colleagues, friends, teachers, publisher, and beloved for having supported my writing since that very first moment when my pen was pressed on paper," Ozee concludes.

More information:

Copies of "Regulus" may be purchased from https://www.aaronozee.com/ or mainstream retail outlets.

This attempt was sponsored by Send2Press Newswire (https://www.send2press.com/), a leading news distribution service operating since 1983, a service of Neotrope(r).

Critically Acclaimed Author Aaron Ozee to Release Powerful New Children’s Book, ‘Regulus’

ADDISON, Ill. /ScoopCloud/ -- High quality fiction for children can be an impossible niche to satisfy and that is why Aaron Ozee, bestselling author of "My Darling Child Shiloh," has been gathering so much attention. Ozee's work with "My Darling Child Shiloh" garnered near universal praise when it was released in 2016. Ozee, a prolific author with 10 other pieces of work under his belt, immediately seized upon this success in order to develop his most ambitious project yet: "Regulus" (ISBN: 978-1387010790).

"Regulus" is the story of all stories and Ozee held nothing back when crafting this project. The story of Regulus is equally engaging and impactful as it blends high concept with childlike wonder, making it an incredible read for children of all ages. "Regulus" follows the tale of three tiny mice, representative of innocence and youth, as they cross paths with the titular character Regulus.

"Regulus" is a representation of the more troubling moments in life and a subject that so few children's authors dare to touch upon despite the gentle nature of such a tale.

The story of "Regulus" is going to be told not just on paper as it will be displayed in several different forms of media, as well. For "My Darling Child Shiloh" we saw Ozee develop a relationship with a stunning stop-motion artist by the name of Martyna Koleniec.

Koleniec and Ozee worked hand-in-hand to develop a gorgeous animated film adaptation of "My Darling Child Shiloh," eventually releasing it to the public where the video quickly racked up over 100,000 views globally. Ozee is revisiting this partnership in order to once again port his work into a more consumable medium, thus giving children the world over the opportunity to engage in the story of "Regulus."

Aaron Ozee has already detailed an extensive publication plan for "Regulus" in order to get it in front of the eyes of as many people as possible. "Regulus" will be published and put to market on June 24, 2017. The project will be released through Lulu Press and Smashwords in both print and eBook format.

Following an initial sales volley, Ozee will then be bringing "Regulus" to acclaimed publication wholesaler, Ingram Book Company for a global distribution deal. Once in distribution you will be able to find "Regulus" on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Half Price Books, Alibiris, Books-A-Million, Abe Books, Google Play, and through other booksellers.

As the push for "Regulus" reaches a fever pitch it can be important to remember just how far Aaron Ozee has come as an author in such a short period of time.

Ozee first began writing stories when he was just five years old and would go onto publish his first book, "Celestial Inferno: Poems of Another Realm," at age 15 while still attending Addison Trail High School. A foray into poetry led Ozee to begin garnering national attention as his anthology work, "Ironic Perfection: Poetic Works of Aaron Ozee," became a hit with the masses.

"Ironic Perfection" was Ozee's seventh published work and, perhaps, his most impactful to date. Now, Ozee is being brought on to speak at schools, bookstores, and national events in order to share his success as both an entrepreneur as well as an author. Fans who wish to follow along in Ozee's journey should remember to mark June 24 down on their calendars as the national and international release of "Regulus" comes closer by the day.

For all media inquiries, please call the offices of Ozee Holdings at (630) 656-0323. Additional information regarding the debut of Regulus will shared on Facebook (@AaronOzee), Twitter, (@AaronOzee), or via Aaron Ozee's official author website at http://www.aaronozee.com/.
