Imagine a treatment that could build bones, strengthen the immune system and lower the risks of illnesses like diabetes, heart and kidney disease, high blood pressure and cancer.
Some research suggests that such a wonder treatment already exists. It’s vitamin D, a nutrient that the body makes from sunlight and that is also found in fish and fortified milk.
Yet despite the health potential of vitamin D, as many as half of all adults and children are said to have less than optimum levels and as many as 10 percent of children are highly deficient, according to a 2008 report in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

I frequently recommend between a 1,000 and 5,000 IU vitamin D3 supplement to the majority of my patients who come in for nutritional consultations and whose test results suggest a deficiency. The exact dose depends on environmental and patient-specific factors. There is no one single amount that is perfect for everyone. |
