70% of Americans have Vitamin D deficiencies

70% of Americans do not get enough vitamin D (which can be obtained from the diet, or from the sun). Deficiency in Vitamin D increases the risk of certain cancers and autoimmune diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.

A lot of people don't spend enough time in the sun. Glad I'm outdoors a lot and drink OJ with added Vitamin D.

With all the "Wear SPF 100 or you'll drop dead!" ads on TV you'd think it was the other way around/Eponique

I get a lot from milk. Obtaining it through diet is always ideal but getting it from a multi is better than nothing.

I'm sure the majority of the human population in general are deficient in a lot of nutrients due to obesity, malnutrition, or not enough exercise. Hell, there are more obese people now than malnourished people.

i should go lay in the sun and tan they said reduces risk of cancer such as in the skin they said.wii60_3

If you're not getting enough you can always take a mutlivitamin, which I know isn't better than the real thing, but at least it's something.

Skim milk is better than whole milk. Try low fat maybe?

[QUOTE="gamerguru100"][QUOTE="whipassmt"] Maybe if we took some food from the obese and gave it to the malnourished we could solve both problems. Although I think obese people can still be deficient in some nutrients.

You can get vitamin D from cod liver oil.SolidSnake35

[QUOTE="gamerguru100"] I actually remember seeing an article stating that the world has enough food to feed 12 billion people, which is almost twice the current population of 7 billion. What the hell are we waiting for then? gamerguru100

[QUOTE="gamerguru100"][QUOTE="Eponique"] Starvation has more to do with a corrupt regime than anything else. Even if all the obese people in the world started eating less those people in Africa would still be starving because the elite keep the food for themselves.

[QUOTE="whipassmt"] People starved under communism/socialism as well. I think 65 million Chinese died of famine during Mao's Great Leap Forward. Basically Mao wanted the country to industrialize so he told everyone to start making steel, which lead to mass famine since the farmers stopped farming to make steel (and really home made steel is pretty crappy). Also there was the Holdomor in the Ukraine where the Soviets purposely tried to starve the Ukrainian people

i drink plenty of milk every day and I always go outside for at least 30 minutes a day with no sunscreen. I'm fine. l4dak47

I'm sure 70% of Americans have more than just a Vitamin D deficiency. Too little fruits and veg, too little whole grains.
