The largest ever clinical study on the benefits of vitamin D
... but that study says nothing about effects of vitamin D supplementation because vitamin D supplementation isn't even monitored or asked about in the study! Period.
From what I can tell, that study only talks about vitamin D use with respect to bone health. My understanding is that if you take vitamin D without getting enough magnesium, you could develop bone spurs or other calcification...
Yet neither of these articles mentions magnesium anywhere, not once!
What good is a genetic analysis if they're not even considering magnesium?
People don't even know how to take vitamin D properly. A lot of people I know will take it at night, which could sabotage its beneficial effects by sending a strong signal to the body that it's day time.
Vitamin D in the body is intricately wrapped up with calcium, magnesium, vitamin K and melatonin.
I don't like this kind of black and white, linear thinking that labels what it doesn't understand as "pseudo".
