Interesting paper on vit D

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
For those interested, here is a link to a thorough and interesting paper that ran in NE Journal of Medicine on vit d deficiency.

http://www.uvadvantage.org/portals/0...ofMedicine.pdf

On page 5 there is a listing of foods containing vit d and their iu amounts. Author outlines research for different diseases in association with Vit d levels.

At the bottom of page 10 (jumps to page 12) provides interesting info on breastfeeding and vit d. Says that supplementing mom with 4,000 iu of vit d per day shows increase in baby to adequate vit d levels.
