I've heard the same thing. No economic incentives compared to making a custom drug.

  You've heard nonsense. There's tons of studies and clinical trials about the use of vitamin D. Here's an article listing just a few: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/322619 https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/322619 Every time you "hear" something about a topic that's important (e.g. in this case: health), just don't take anyone's word for it (doctors are people, too and have their cognitive biases and non-fact based opinions). It's not that hard to look this stuff up and just do a quick check in relevant publications or sites like research.net - https://www.researchgate.net/search/publication?q=vitamin%20d https://www.researchgate.net/search/publication?q=vitamin%20... - to get a more accurate picture.

    > It's not that hard to look this stuff up Aside from the fact that most health studies papers are retracted within 10 years, or found to be the opposite of what was claimed. Which is less annoying than people like you who fetishize anything published. I suggest you learn what "peer review" actually means before telling people to run off and read about false health claims.
