The paper that the article links to is this one:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24729336 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24729336
That quote appears in a sentence near the middle of the "MAIN RESULTS" section.
The sentence you quoted does not disagree with this at all; it's unclear what it has to do with the "supplemental D has no benefit" argument.
- justinclift 8y agoHmmm. The original article this was republished from is here: https://theconversation.com/vitamin-d-a-pseudo-vitamin-for-a-pseudo-disease-101907 https://theconversation.com/vitamin-d-a-pseudo-vitamin-for-a... The third paragraph of that article says: The largest ever clinical study on the benefits of vitamin D in preventing fractures is now reported in the BMJ, with over 500,000 people and around 188,000 fractures from 23 cohorts from many countries. With a link on the "largest ever clinical study" text to: https://www.bmj.com/content/362/bmj.k3225 https://www.bmj.com/content/362/bmj.k3225 The article presently pointed at by HN (on sciencealert.com), is a re-publishing... with the link removed. Seems kinda dodgy. :( HN mods - It'd probably be better to link to the original article, as the sciencealert one looks to have specific, strategic problems. ;/
