Rep Power: 6 RandyR is on a distinguished road
Newsweek Jan 17, 2005 article "Health For Life - Diet and Genes" on page 47. Titled "A Neglected Nutrient" says "Are Americans Dying From a Lack of Vitamin D?"
The article talks of Vitamin D being most efficiently produced by the body and only when exposed to sunlight. "I dont like to overstate things," says Dr Robert Heaney, a vitamin D researcher at Creighton University, "but I think we may find that vitamin D deficiency is a public-health crisis."
The article speaks of Vitamin D possibly helping to "prevent breast, prostate, and ovarian cancers by slowing the division of cells" as well as much more amazing Vitamin D info.

Is the tide about to turn??
