I suppose it proves in this particular case that ‘Care in the Community’ is not working.

Sunshine isn't the sole source of Vitamin D so there's no need to have sunshine during the winter.

One can simply eat Vitamin D rich foods like salmon, tuna, mackerel, herring and sardines, as well as red meat and eggs and orange juice, soy milk, cereals, beef liver and cheese.

Really doesn't seem that complicated to me TBH

I dont think Big Pharma and the establishment (your bogeymen) are going to like you sharing that information. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that the men in black will be knocking on your door in the early hours. You will be whisked away to their secret re-education camp near Davos.

Or alternatively they might just settle for a huge Campaign Of Fear and convince people that the Sun is a very nasty piece of work that will give you skin cancer so you mustn't even step out of your front door unless you have 3 inches of chemical laden sun cream slapped all over you !

Campaign of Fear? I though that was your raison d'etre

Re: Vitamin D Defficiency and Mobility Issues in Old People

There's a useful table at the website below highlighting Vit D values for various foods.

https://www.askdoctork.com/is-it-bet...l-201303164512

"The current recommendation for vitamin D is 600 international units (IU) per day for people up to age 70, and 800 IU per day for those over age 70"

Food, Vit D content (IU's)
===================

Salmon, cooked, 3-1/2 ounces: 360

Mackerel, cooked, 3-1/2 ounces: 345

Tuna fish, canned in oil, drained, 3 ounces: 200

Sardines, canned in oil, drained, 1-3/4 ounces: 250

Orange juice, fortified, 8 ounces: 100

Milk, any fat content, vitamin D–fortified, 1 cup: 98

Breakfast cereal, fortified with 10% of the DV, 3/4-cup to 1-cup: 40–100

Obviously. Why do you feel the need to tell us things we already know all the time? perhaps you think you're the only one who knows anything about life.

The sun provides us with lots of Vitamin D and creates Melanin.

The "establishment" and largely fraudulent Big Pharma health industry would have you stay out of the sun. They WANT YOU SICK ! How do they get you to stop doing THE most natural thing that any human can do (get in the sunshine)? By doing what they ALWAYS do, perpetrate a huge Campaign of Fear.

Oh yes me old fruits, don't go in the sunshine, you'll get cancer !!!!

Instead slap nasty sun creams all over your skin. Block up those pores which lovely chemicals so you don't get the benefit of the sun's energy ! Or just stay in the shade!!!!

Utter Billy BS!

The sun's rays are life. We all need them whether we realise it or not. If you want to be healthy then spend time in the sun. No stupid creams. Just a few minutes in the sun. When it feels too hot, too uncomfortable, move out and get in the shade. Your body will tell you when it has had enough.

But boy does the body appreciate that energy ! Lot's of natural Vitamin D and other goodness and you feel recharged and healthy. Your finger and toe nails and hair will grow faster which shows you it is having an effect.

I just despair at people thinking they will get this goodness from Vitamn D supplements. Be natural. Stop taking pills and potions and be healthy.
.....And I refer to your original quote. Most of it is saying we need sunshine for our vitamin D source, does it not?

The fact that you know something doesn't mean everyone knows. The forum isn't here for your personal edification. There are lots of members and guest readers.

The info is useful and it doesn't hurt at all to post it up. For some it will save them having to go off and Google.

I presume you are having trouble finding the "ignore" button that you previously said you were going to use. Admin can doubtless help you out with that.
