    Heather, LOVE it. I am so glad I had my D levels tested because, no surprise here, I was VERY low (as you know bc I made you read my test results and translate for me).

    I am so glad I got that done and am now supplementing! I want the bennies of D!!!!

    Holy moly, girl!

    First, I know I am deficient. I am going to get tested to find out how much. Might start supplementing beforehand because I am LOW! Second, I was just mentioning

    I had a bio sig profile done a few months ago and low on D so I’ve been supplementing ever since. But I had no idea on how important it was…until now!

    Thanks, Heather! Great article!

    GREAT post Heather! Dang, prof., I feel like I’m in Chemistry for Nursing again.

    I’m really looking forward to the series :) for more info on D, how much time in the sun is enough, etc. and esp. supplementation.

    I posted recently on my blog that children are now getting rickets again because of their lack of Vit D. Its shocking that we are back to almost Victorian standards in our health.
    Get outside and play, each fish, get a good balanced diet. Its not so hard eh? ha ha
    love this post thanks so much for it. I am going to send my readers this way to see it!

    Hey All! Woop woop for getting tested! I want reports, ladies. I test this month to see if my supplementation efforts are effective! I had no idea how important it was until I really started digging the last few years. Unbelievable. It is not an overstatement at this point to say your very life depends on having adequate–make that optimal–vitamin D levels cranking. My attitude toward sun exposure has even changed a good bit because of that.

    Amanda! Thank you for your comment, and for passing things along! Isn’t that some stuff about rickets? I guess we need to fight old school with old school–if the “old-timey” illnesses are going to make a resurgence, how about some good old fashioned fresh air, sunshine, activity/play, and un-fussed with food from the ground, trees, sky, and water, eh?

    Oh! Heather!
    You remind me of the importance of blood testing, girl!
    My last test should be something like 5 or 6 years ago…and ever since i have competing in fitness events each year! Could you send me a PM to list me all that i should get tested.
    Thanks for helping and putting me the right way on my health.
    Sabine
