The Big Vitamin D Mistake (not enough)

[rkbabang]

Worth watching, for a good rebuttal of the recurring meme in media about supplementation being all bad/BS:

 

 

This is a rebuttal to a 2013 publication. To better understand, I would have liked to hear more about the "biases and agenda" of the authors.

The video is not a full rebuttal really. She raises a number of issues with studies that are possibly reasonable, but mostly pushes towards "we don't know", rather than "we know they are good" (which would be a real rebuttal to "we know they are not good/useful").

 

If you claim that something is the case and someone else points out the flaws in your reasoning that is a rebuttal, even if it just takes us back to “we don’t know”.

I've probably listened to 15 hours of Rhonda Patrick interview recently, she's incredibly smart and well informed. Good starting points:
