Sheesh. Lucky guy. I get no respect. My doctor gave me sleeping pills and I swallowed the whole bottle. I said “Doc what should I do?’’ He said “Have a couple of drinks and get some rest’’.

You may want to tell them melanoma is caused by lack of sun...the other type of cancer generally on face is likely sunlight caused...but very slow growing and curable/removable

I was referring to your comment of a “singe bound”. And you’re questioning my vision? I’ll still try your vitamin D tgouth.

We take 4,000 units of D3, 100 K2, Tumeric and 2000 units of C every day. We are pretty healthy.

Good for you. Keep up on the PSA checks because even a 1.0 should be monitored at least once per year.

Easy to read Vit-D chart. Thanks for posting it.

I pop a couple of 5000IUs every other day. Works well for me.

Why should you take Vit K with your Vit D?

Vitamin K: The Missing Nutrient to Blame for Heart Attacks and Osteoporosis (Nope - NOT Calcium or Vitamin D)

I take 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily and 100MG of Vitamin K2.
