vitamin-D Deficiency

     Vitamin-D deficiency is a big problem today, doctors have noticed a great decline in vitamin-D levels. More and more people are told they have a vitamin-D deficiency and that they need to take vitamin-D supplements to bring up their levels. Why now, and why are so many people deficient?
      To find this out we must first go back about three decades ago to a time when doctors were telling people to cut out their fats in order to lose weight and to lower their cholesterol numbers. This is where the problem started. To understand why, we have to understand that vitamin-D is a fat soluble vitamin, not water soluble like your B vitamins, what this means is that it is stored in the fats of animals and is only absorbed through eating fats, so, when you cut out the fat you are also cutting out the fat soluble vitamins and minerals that are stored in that fat. This means you are no longer getting fat soluble vitamins like vitamin-D, in your diet anymore. The other part of that is; you are also cutting out your cholesterol which, by the way, makes vitamin-D when the sun beams it's light on your skin but, since people cut out their cholesterol, they won't have enough to convert into vitamin-D. Also, the animals that we eat are force fed grains and are not eating grass that gives them omega-3s, and are in covered feeding bins, they are also low in vitamin-D, plus the milk they give that we drink is already low in vitamin-D do to the bad foods and living conditions, is pasteurized (pasteurizing is heating a product to high temperatures) to kill bacteria also destroys the fat soluble vitamins too.
     Is there any wonder why people are low on vitamin-D?
     I eat only free range beef and eggs and I don't cut out the fats, because of this, I don't have a problem with vitamin-D deficiency, nor do I have a problem with high cholesterol either. I also stay away from grains as best as I can and try not to eat any sugar either.
     I had a friend that was a couple of years younger than me who followed the dictates of the day and cut out all of his fat and ate more grains like his doctor told him to. He died of a stroke a few years back, and he hadn't even reached his fifties yet. I'm still going strong because I stopped listening to the dictates of the day and started studying physiology, and in doing so I realized a lot of what is dictated to us by our health care professionals is just plain wrong and deadly dangerous too.
     One more thing, for those on cholesterol lowering drugs, keep in mind that anything that lowers your cholesterol by synthetic means, is likely to lower your vitamin-D too, and Staten drugs also lower the  oxygen in your heart which, can lead to heart attacks. If you think about it, it really doesn't make any sense at all taking a Staten drug to lower your cholesterol, it's just plain insane.
     I will tell you what I tell everyone, don't rely on doctors and dietitians, start doing some studies on your own of physiology and you will see just how messed up our whole health care system really is.
STOP DYING AND START LIVING!
