I should wait for the next parts, but I fear the author ignores our very important point of view: we are bayesian machines working with limited information under conditions of bounded rationality.
Lack of proof that Vitamin D supplementation is necessary is irrelevant. We don't work on proofs. If I were to describe our standard, it would a balance of "might it help?" and "might it hurt?". Currently, and I think taking the next parts in consideration as well, I think the answers will be very much in favor of supplementation - with caveats I'm actually very eager to read about.
- devaboone 6y agoThanks for commenting! I wrote the blog, and I like your point of view. There was only so much I could cover in one post, but I do hope to get to these issues. And you are right, for most people the conclusion will likely be that a moderate dose of Vitamin D is not likely to harm, and may help - but then there are many many arguments over what constitutes a moderate dose, and I hope to cover that as well.
