Thanks for the link, Lara. Read your snips; will read article later.

It does not feel the same to me. I feel distinctly different effects from sun exposure than anything I can eat or drink. I have hx of vit D deficiency and it would be interesting to see what my chromosomes look like.
It would be terribly cool if vit D is all it's gonna take to reduce that many cases of ms.
