The Benefits Of Vitamin D

the problem with medical science is that doctors are not sure of anything. for every study that proves something there is a study showing opposite results of the previous study. maybe this confusion is the way pharmaceutical companies want it to be. listen to this guy, "we are not sure if it's because of that or this...". c'mon, can't you (or won't you) be for one time in your life sure of something and get eaxact result of study you are doing...

Hmm seems everthing is poison a m8,,,

He is not a good doctor....no toxicity with vitamin D, I'm a college dropout and I know that....he is connect to Pharma as are most Dr.s keep prescribing those meds that are TOXIC.

tanning beds are regulated by the FDA. Indoor tanning is a good way to get vitamin d. Search Dr. Holick. he has been studing this for over 30 years.

isn't the max daily intake like 1000 IU?

I think toxicity starts around 40,000 IU per day. I think that's like drinking 40 gallons of milk a day.

This doctor didn't say one single thing about the fact that you want Vitamin D3 and not D2. It's D3 that everyone is hyped up about as far as anti-cancer, anti-flu studies being promising.

Also, this isn't evidence, but everyone I know who takes vitamin D3 supplements seems to not get the flu. I take 2000 to 5000 IU per day of D3 in the winter, but I'm no doctor. I just read pubmed.

I was watching a lecture by some prof at University of California the other day and he said that the best way to absorb Vitamin D is by sun exposure. He went on to say that one can't get adequate amount of Vitamin D in North America between November and February (since its away from the equator and the earth is titled away from the sun). He didn't suggest a good supplement which kinda blows....
