The word is not Guinea Pig. We are Money generating machines for the big Pharms who legalized drug pushers.WHich are worse than the drug pusher on the cornor.At lease the cornor pusher ,we know who he is...If you don't believe their just legal drug pushers ;look around you doctors office . Did you notice all the little gifts they give your doctor to push these drugs on you? Have you ever been in the doctors office at lunch time and the drug reps bring in lunch for everyone ? And how about Free Trips, Box Seats at ball games to bribe the doctor to push their product. The average drug Co. spends 15,000 dollars a year on every doctor in practice in this country. Who do you thing pays that money ? Us 'the consumer.

Prescription and artifical vitamin D is highly toxic and limited in benifits. Your best bet is 20 min. of full sun exposure a day. You will recieve 20,000IU's a day. The best part is you body will shut off the production of Vitamin D production when you reach optimal leval. Second best choice is Cod Liver Oil. If you're like me the second choice is a must. In N.E. Ohio the sun can be rare ,espesially in the winter.

Agree completely! We're all the geese that laid the golden eggs.

Been reading up on Vit D since this discussion started. Have read research that says people over the age of 40 don't get sufficient Vit D from the sun. Guess it may have to do with not being able to synthesize it properly after a certain age. Darker skinned people need more sunlight than lighter skinned people because their melatonin blocks it.

Research I read also said that people shouldn't mega dose on Vit D without first getting levels checked.
