This is a little intriguing, because the Amish do spend a fair amount of time outside, which should help them make Vitamin D.

However, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that a medicine could make the body have a dysfunction.

If you take D3, try to make sure to take it with vitamin K2. Helps to get the D3 into the right places, not mineralizing into muscles and arteries.

Interesting...

I was on the drug carbamazepine for 20 years to control my complex partial seizures. During the last few years I was on it before I switched to other drugs, I developed moderate to heavy arthritis in my hands and feet, and my head got VERY HOT at night - I did not know why. I would drench my head in cold water, so I can go back to sleep.

When I switched over two other seizure meds, the hot head disappeared - it was likely due to being on carbamazepine for so long (allergy?). And carbamazepine is now known to degrade Vitamin D, which I now take supplements to slow down the condition.

Surprisingly, when carbamazepine was first marketed in 1960, it was not known it destroys vitamin D until 60 years later...
