This isn't new, we knew about this in April. If you don't get much sunlight or do but have melenated skin which reduces absorption and live in a northern climate, you should be taking supplements.
- JshWright 6y agoYou're right that this isn't new, but that's only because it's just as weak as all the other "evidence" on this topic. The reality is, there is a very weak body of evidence that maybe vitamin D provides a slight benefit. And yet, its proponents engage in the same hyperbole as the medical marijuana crowd. Take it if you want, it's not going to hurt you at any kind of reasonable dose, but it's not some miracle cure that is going to solve everyone's health issues.
- mosseater 6y agoYou know when I first read your comment about the medical marijuana crowd, I wanted to shoot up and defend it. It's brought me great benefits for my specific medical condition that it applies to. However that's just it, my specific medical condition (migraines) isn't everyone's. So many people in the "crowd" are going around telling everyone it will cure their depression, anxiety, and basically anything that's painful or uncomfortable for them. It's not a miracle cure, and has it's clear detriments.
