Roy Vincent Berglund was born on July 4, 1922, in Seattle, Washington. He graduated from Queen Anne High School and started to attend the University of Washington while working full time in a radio shop. His college education was interrupted by the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941. He was in the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II, based stateside in Santa Ana, California, working as a medical lab technician, from 1943 to 1946.
Subsequently, he graduated from La Sierra College in 1949, and then attended the College of Medical Evangelists in Loma Linda, graduating in 1954. Now it is known as the Loma Linda University School of Medicine (LLUSM). While he was happy and proud to consider himself a medical evangelist, some foreign countries did not want to accept medical evangelists, so LLUSM later made updated diplomas available for graduates.Â

LOMA LINDA, California, December 23, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) Several studies show a correlation between Vitamin D levels and COVID-19.
According to a now viral interview with Professor Roger Seheult of the Loma Linda University School of Medicine, several studies show that people with higher amounts of Vitamin D in their blood are less likely to test positive for COVID-19 than people with Vitamin D deficiency. Another study has shown that COVID-positive patients treated with hydroxylated Vitamin D were less likely to need admittance to ICU than COVID-positive patients in the placebo group. Still another study showed that COVID-positive patients treated with Vitamin D were more likely to be COVID-negative in 21 days than their counterparts in the placebo group.
