Bread and phytates: vitamin & calcium absorption
Can anyone advise on a point which is confusing me at the moment: I have learned that certain foods inhibit the absorption of calcium and vitamin D3 in the bones (phytates). I have stopped eating all bran at breakfast because it contains wheat grain and not whole grain. Looking at all the bread I eat

Adcal D3
Hello I was prescribed Adcal D3 750 Mg caplets three years ago after a Dexa scan result showed osteopenia. The GP label directions on the box were for one caplet twice a day. The actual box contains a paper information list of details however that show adults and children over 12 to take two caplets

This is about MS but could this apply to any autoimmune condition
I was doing my usual trawl for Vit D protocol updates and came across this from 2009. Nothing has changed in 11 years but the conclusion of the study suggests that many thousands of people could have escaped the misery of MS. MS is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that imposes heavy burdens

Taking vitamin D3 and K2 separately
I’ve got a bottle of D3 3000IU and K2 Menaquinone MK7 200ug. I’ve read on here to take them separately at different times of the day. Well after being ill with some sort of virus from the Sunday before Christmas until the Sunday after New Year, I broke my right arm - I’m only right handed! - on Wednesday
