Vitamin D Supplements Don't Help Your Health: Review

[phleshdef]

18. Supplements help when you have a deficiency. If you aren't deficient in something, you don't...

...need to add extra.

Take me for example, my vitamin D was checked in last year's blood work and it was LOW, like single digits low and that can lead to health problems, and I believe it had a lot to do with general achiness I'd been having.

So I took supplements, per doc's orders for about 6 months. My next blood work showed that my level had increased to a healthy level and the doctor then told me to discontinue the Vitamin D supplement and take a multivitamin or try to add more Vitamin D rich foods to my diet (I don't eat/drink dairy, don't like it).

If your body is in need of something because its low in that something, its painfully obvious that taking a supplement that provides that something is going to help you. That's pretty much inarguable fact. If you don't need it though because your body is absorbing enough of it from your regular diet, then taking the supplement likely won't do much for you.
