Get outside in the sun! Lots of vitamin D for free.
True, might be fat people with diets low in vitamin D who don’t get enough sun and have other risk factors.
But correlation and causation sometimes do coincide, ;-)
Interesting... I take 2000 iu’s daily in addition to some sun exposure.
I think diabetes has more to do with the daily consumption of animal products and processed foods than lacking Vitamin D.
Take more Metamucil, keep the guts clean.
Statin drugs -> less cholesterol -> cholesterol is used in skin to make vitamin D -> less vitamin D produced -> greater health problems
Yes Vitamin D3 is very important!
I would add Vitamin C, E (mixed tocopherols), B (Complex), nascent iodine and high alkaline water will take you a long way.
Vitamin D is actually a steroid and needed for a lot of different things. One of the most important is immune system activation. People with chronically low vitamin D tend to fall sick more and are more likely to get cancer because of a suppressed immune system - and ironically even skin cancer! Google vitamin D melanoma.
No one seems to mention the greater risk for stroke and heart disease from diabetes. Diabetes is a real killer.
