Agreed, but I don't consider it absurd at all. I didn't even bother reading the article because I was talking
generalities, not specific to vitamin D. I should have made that clear I suppose, it was right in line with the rest of the Vit D "discussion"

Beyond this, the scientific support for "optimal" levels of supplemental sources is weak. Almost everything points to reaching adequate levels of supplementation in order to avoid illness/dysfunction.
Is this a case of absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence?
In addition to the generality I meant performance geared individuals. People who are demanding more of their body than Joe Six Pack Arm Chair Quarterback who sees the sun only when he needs to buy beer. Is more Vitamin D needed for performance geared individuals? :shrug: It has anabolic properties in supporting Testosterone so maybe?
