This article was written by my wife a while back. It is part of a series she wrote to help people think about Vitamin D. She's actually doing a facebook live presentation (and taking questions) on Vitamin D next month if anyone is interested [1]. She's doing consults all day today and tomorrow but I'll let her know this is here.

I would be interested to hear her responses to a number of the concerns/confusion mentioned below.

It seems like there is a lot of speculation in this area (not just this thread, but previous threads on vitamin D), and not a lot of evidence/studies to back it up.

Hey there! I'm here now and will try to respond to everything brought up. Some of the confusion stems from the complexity of the issue. There has been a lot of research on the clinical role of Vitamin D, much of it of questionable quality. On the basic science of it, there is a lot of great research, but these articles are often hard to read unless you have a PhD in biochemistry.

I remember she answered a bunch of HN questions about Vitamin D during the pandemic, it was great!
