IF so, then why hasn't this been known for decades?
Some of them probably die from melanoma.
However, I read an article about 2 years ago in which one researcher claimed that D-2 did, repeat: DID work as well as Vitamin D3.
Huh?
You mean all these Americans suddenly supplementing with one to ten thousand international units a day MAY lose the ability to synthesize Vitamin D in their skin??????
Oh, that's great. Just great.
I don’t drink ir for the V-d but I can’t stand reduced fat or skimmed milk so it comes with the whole milk whether you want it or not!
But ... there is absolutely nowhere that I've ever seen if while losing weight if all that Vitamin D is released back into the body.
Do you happen to know?
So far in my life i’ve drank over 15,000 gallons of the stuff!

However, notice the operative word,...*can* (may) whatever.
It would seem that it is not a given.
Extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence.
“reduce your risk of most major diseases by 50-80%” is an EXTREMELY extraordinary claim, so far backed by......

Do you believe that you are the only person in the world who knows the meaning of the word 'anorexia'?
