Vitamin D

I recently read the book The Vitamin D Solution by Michael F. Holick MD, PhD. This is a particularly important book for all to read because almost everyone is deficient in vitamin D (really a hormone). Please visit his website for a synopsis of the book and then go get the book.

There are a couple of recent articles supporting the importance of vitamin D. One shows how important it is for the immune system particularly during the flu season. Another features Dr. Holick and describes how important it is to get Vitamin D from the sun during the summer months so that you have enough during the winter.
