This whole vitamin D3 deficiency thing is indicative of the whole medical intelligence deficiency (for which there may be no cure). It is a perfect snapshot of medicine’s despite for our health and their reverence for entrenched medical tradition and inflexibility of financial/manufacturing interests. Vitamin D3 repletion (to blood levels of 35-50 ng/dl) is so inexpensive and so effectual in elevating the spectrum of human health parameters it would fracture the fear of disease being held over our heads to control us. For instance, because adequate vit. D3 repletion makes people virtually immune to pathogens the fangs of fear could be broken from bioterrorism and pandemic threats. What would that be worth? Repletion also corrects many of the internal conditions causing the plague of chronic and degenerative diseases. That alone could remove the medical cost concerns fundamental to the call for ObamaCare. Healthy people don’t often submit themselves for invasive testing, toxic drugs, risky surgeries, irradiation dangers, required recurrent medical visits, therapies, retraining, broken families, etc.

But, it seems neither government health bureaucracies’, legislators’ nor AMA (excluding some other medical guilds) leaders are inclined to act congrously with public necessity and desires.

One thing is certain – take care of doing it for yourself, loved ones and influence friends who will listen. You can vastly improve your survivability when it hits the fan. Most important, find out what God is willing to do to help you in this regard (leave the company of anyone who scoffs at the idea.)

There’s Vitamin D3 available in 300 capsules per bottle with 4000 IU for only 11 bucks. It should last me for almost a year if I remember to take it daily otherwise it’ll last me longer. A good buy.

My primary care doc is testing everyone for vit D levels. The bill came and it was $232 for this one test. It would be cheaper to just start taking vit D instead of testing! I could have bought a lifetime supply for that!

the FDA has declared mercury safe and B6 a new drug. How stupid is that! Now we need a Rx for B6 but they can inject put mercury in vaccines and tell us it is safe? What a crock!
