Jeff,

 

It is interesting to note that the vitamin D level is set at 5 under

the CODEX standard. Most new research in the states supports at least

2000 - 4000 IU, or more, for people with cancer, fibromyalgia,

diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, MS, lupus, rheumatoid

arthritis, depression, schizophrenia, gum disease, osteoporosis,

rickets, osteomalacia and psoriasis.

 

 

 

When exposed to summer sunlight the youthful, healthy body can make

about 10,000 -12,000 IU of vitamin D in about 30 minutes. Elderly

persons, the homebound, people who dress to cover the body for

religious reasons, those above 35 degrees latitude, those who use

sunscreen, those who live in smog or do not go in the sun, people with

dark skin, obese persons and breast fed infants will be vitamin D

deficient and require longer exposure to sunlight.

At present the CODEX dictocrats can't tell you that you don't have the

right to go out in the mid-day sun to get your vitamin D!

The German Risk Assessment Institute (BfR) has performed the task of

setting Upper Safe Levels (USLs) for nutrients to be controlled under

CODEX regulations. This tells only part of the store because there is

no benefit analysis for any of the nutrients included in the BfR. The

real problems occur when USLs are moderated to Maximum Permitted

Levels (MPLs) by only one organizaton.

 

 

 

The BfR levels have been established as maximum permitted daily

levels. In many cases these levels do not even approximate the current

and approved Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) in the United States.

Could YOU live with these allowed levels?
