Isn't this a bit of an overreach considering the following from the same article:
"emphasises the current prevalence of vitamin D deficiencies in France, with 70% of adults noted to have inadequate intakes in 2019."
That is an absolutely insanely high deficiency.
- frontman1988 3y agoThe best thing is to go out in the sun and soak in the required D. Shortcuts like vitamin pills will always have side effects.
