Dear Dr. Rhonda, have you seen a recent New York Times article stating that vitamin D supplementation is unnecessary, and that the studies that supported this were paid by the vitamin supplementation industry. I would really like to hear your take on this, please! Here is the link to the article, in case you haven’t seen it: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/10/health/vitamin-d-deficiency-supplements.html
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.
I give a special increased priority to my supporters who message me through Patreon, so please consider making use of their messaging system by pledging a small amount to support my website.
