Is that what the Zeta Reticulans told Elvis and JFK when they met, last week, at a secret location on the Nazca plains?

Scientific American magazine did have an article a few years ago stating that it was starting to look like people weren't getting enough vitamin D. That's certainly not a publication dedicated to touting the benefits of seaweed capsules.

Health & wellness is such a complicated topic that it is hard to say that one thing is better over another. However, I believe that since the onset of the internet and other means that have driven people to be more steadfast in taking care of their health and dig deeper for more answers to health issues, many more liberal sources are turning to conservative perspectives, even if it's just to please the common consumer. Not that the mentioned mag is categorized in that manner, but many are finally giving in (to a point) that the ideals that some have held for years and considered quackiness are actually true and deserve attention and studying. That is a GOOD thing. Many health issues are not "issues" at all if people would just eat right and exercise.

If you research vit D you'll find how it runs a TON of functions of your body and how optimum levels fight off sickness & disease.

Should you get your levels tested (I did & will again), keep in mind that "good enough" levels are not the same as "optimum" levels. Also, labcorp has FAR more advanced testing than quest diag, so do NOT use quest because your level could be higher/lower than their result because they have unreliable processes.
