With the recent publication of several studies regarding vitamin D, and the notable percentage of women we see who have levels of serum D Hydroxy 25 that fall well below the noted norms, I wanted to compile information that would bring the science to the people (so to speak, but it sounds more fun than some stuffy professional-speak!).
The information included in this article was derived from several sources cited at the end of the article. I did not cite specific sentences throughout this article as I read through all of the research, taking notes while reading, and sought to summarize it into understandable language and not to recreate a scientific read. I encourage readers to go directly to the sources to gain a deeper understanding of the issues related to vitamin D.
You are welcome to reprint this article with my name attached and to use it for your own education or to share with colleagues, clients, friends, daughters, mothers, fathers, sons, etc...just maintain the fact that it is a result of many hours of work on my part and we're all good. ; ) Now go get a mug of tea or some Cod liver oil and curl up on the couch (or your front seat in the carpool line) and read on...
