It is fact that the medical community has not and does not study the benefits of vitamins. They just refuse to study how vitamins impact our health. My cyncal side says this is because they can’t profit from cheap, readily available vitamin supplements.
I read the book “A Statin Nation” by D. Malcolm Kendrick. Hint: he hates Statins. In that book he says we know little to nothng about the correct doses of Vitamins for optimal health because of the almost complete absense of medical studies. His own belief is that the “daily recommended doses” are far too low, but who knows?
He also mentions how studies are doctored. Medical researchers studying the benefits of Vitamin K will use K1, when K2 and K3 have the most benefit as supplements. Then they will declare “no evidence that Vitamin K is beneficial” when they have studied the wrong variety of vitamin K supplement.
If I was a cynic, I would say they are stacking the deck against vitamin supplements to keep us sicker and more in need of expensive drugs.
