[QUOTE="Guided_by_Voices, post: 275616, member: 15235"] The two issues with these types of papers is that 1) many studies of Vitamin D did not include its key co-factors (Vitamins A K2 and E, at a minimum) and did not get blood levels up to around 50 which seems to be the "magic" level and 2) are not actionable since a healthy Vitamin D status is necessary for immune function at a minimum, and anything else it does can be considered a bonus. It's kind of like a study that said "good hydration does not reduce Male Pattern Baldness", to which the answer would be "so what, healthy hydration is still necessary". Regarding adverse effects, if we don't see problematic sarcopenia nearer the equator (which I don't believe we do) then it's likely not an issue. [/QUOTE]
