“Slimology – The relatively Simple Science of Slimming” by Sam Feltham http://www.amazon.com/Slimology-Relatively-Simple-Science-Slimming-ebook/dp/B00Q4N5F52 It is with great pleasure that I post this short review of Sam’s excellent slimming synopsis, after reading it through in one enjoyable sitting; in short it is a great resource, especially for those who want to get painlessly through the supporting science and promptly
Fascinating link via Fay Louise (FB: All things D, Deficiency, Education, Research) – need read the subtitles, and the Irish are disproportionately represented – Eire go Brach!
A little technical in places, and helps if familiar with epigenetic terms, but excellent overall.
Dr. Grimes: Intelligent, articulate, and with extensive clinical experience, he has had a fascinating book recently published that puts the Sun in its rightful place as an enhancer of human health…. His book: http://www.amazon.com/Vitamin-Cholesterol-The-Importance-Sun/dp/0956213200

For an integrated, correct approach sit back and enjoy the real experts.
Meant to do more on K2 recently but too busy – this is the easy way out; remember that any risk associated with being high in 25(OH)D is essentially mediated by your K2 level – so go high on both, and enjoy some synergistic disease mitigation! http://www.healthy-holistic-living.com/vitamin-k2-missing-link-diet-disease-death.html?t=mam http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janus
Just look at those preliminary graphs; Hello there, Horizon “Sugar vs Fat” Special – I wipe my HF firmed-up ass with your worthless anti-science 🙂 http://www.ultrarunning.com/features/health-and-nutrition/the-emerging-science-on-fat-adaptation/
Right, I was lucky to find this – only 123 views for an excellent and entertaining journey through one of the biggest health debacles of our age? The section by Dr. Wagner on proper supplementation effects for pregnant women at approx. half hour point is utterly riveting. This is pivotal material; Hats off to Holick.
Damn, I wish I’d seen this before delivering the D Seminar; yes I touched on the concepts, but I was missing the genius of this explanation. And the video has a horrifyingly low view number, only ~1000 – what a shame. This is technical yes, but it is a landmark lecture. Dr. Hollis, take a
Let’s look at a recent study that claimed Vitamin D DOES NOT HELP with fractures/falls in older people. Sounds like something funny was going on here – so let’s explore a little. Now, when a critical agent for the human body is being investigated, how do you decide the dosage regimen? In this study it
Well I finally got around to this; as I compiled the material in the latter weeks, I was again struck by the absurdity of the current approach to the problem. Hopefully you will agree, and also enjoy this feature-length scientific journey – from our evolutionary beginnings, through to our current reality of chronic disease prevalence. The latter I
Here is a snippit I didn’t even get to fit in the Vitamin D Seminar – it shows the result from a properly executed RCT in the first couple of slides, then an outrageously poorly designed and controlled thingy that was published in 2007 also. More coverage was given to the crap RCT – surprise surprise.
Go Reinhold – more vital analysis to balance the anti-science of the D-detractors. If only all researchers had your ability and your insight. Note his repeated engineering inferences early on – this is indeed engineering, and it’s about time – medical science has had decades to understand the mechanisms of 25(OH)D in the physiology, and generally the benefits of attaining evolutionary levels
Compare this to the weak design, execution and control of some other D3 Trials, most with tiny doses used, both arms freely taking D supplements, and rubbish compliance overall.

No Introduction necessary – science and problem-solving at its best – thanks to Prof. Tim Noakes for circulating:
Right, honestly I’ve only just seen this lecture, and my Vitamin D one is already “in the can” ready for post-production and release next week. Slides now released: http://www.slideshare.net/ivorcummins/d-is-for-debacle-the-crucial-story-of-vitamin-d-and-25ohd-hormone Forgive me for being rather pleased – Dr. Vieth even covers the evolutionary paradigm here, showing that the suggestion of a 25(OH)D of ~20ng/ml being “normal”
Right, the “D is for Debacle” Seminar releases next week, and I found this Lecture from Dr. Bruce Hollis barely in time to include its incredible insights – 42min onwards is edge-of-seat stuff. This is very important. Ideally watch throughout, but particularly from 42min onwards. It will explain why breast milk is no longer fit for use
I like the alternative neovascularization theory of atherosclerosis “Athero-Neovasc-Paper“, although in fairness I believe that atheroma, though generally involving neovascularization, have been found showing without, so black swans in there too 🙂 A referenced paper I found interesting is “1958 Lipid keratopathy and atheroma” (all the way from 1958) – it shows a clear precedence for the
Feel like ejecting a D debacle snippit this evening – the recognized experts in the field are all aligned on 32ng/ml being the minimum safe level, and PTH speaks to that also; arguably 40ng/ml would be a more optimal point. So what is the US population distribution – prize for the best guess is a
This mightn’t apply so much to you healthy low-carbers out there, but I’m sure you all know some High Carb, High Insulin, High Veg Oil “HeartHealthyWholegrain” snafflers, who could benefit in a major way from the understanding of latent risk and appropriate diagnostic procedures http://ihda.ie/see-more/
Right, since finishing the draft of my 25(OH)D seminar content, I’ve been treating myself to finding and watching some of the best in the field displaying their experience. This is a delightful Doc, with a lifetime of experience. He is also very humorous in discussing the Debacle, excellent anger management there considering the reality. A lovely and informative watch
No-one should ever even discuss Vitamin D toxicity, without fully internalizing this excellent lecture from Dr. Reinhold Vieth, or being fully cognizant of the details independently. Period. I’ll say it again, either populate the field with people of this quality, or get some good systemic, integrative problem-solvers in there. Note: Posted this based on sheer instinct before watching
Hello all – only started watching this, but it bodes well in the first few minutes – just though I’d do a quick post as it seems to be available free for a short while only…..just drop in your email: http://origins.well.org/
Yes Indeed, I’ve enough data together to know which way the solar wind is blowing, and have made a purchase towards evolutionary health; it doesn’t mean you don’t need LCHF – you do; it doesn’t mean you consume vegetable oils and push up your w6/w3 – you don’t; but it does mean that you move a further step away from
Finishing draft for the 25(OH)D awareness seminar, and there’s a lot to cover; found Edward Gorham PhD recently and I like him a lot – because he speaks with expertise to a concept that has interesting implications beyond all of the misleading screeches from the cholesterol obsessives; as pointed out, the majority of the Kholesterol Kops don’t even understand the mechanisms behind
Right, I’m working my way through papers on EBCT generally, and I’m impressed. I’m very impressed. In engineering circles, “if you don’t measure it, it don’t get fixed”. Of course your measurement method is pivotal – and it looks like we’ve been dicking around with Framingham methods for far too long; this technology is stunning
Just gotta love this little study – even though it only 32 peeps & two weeks, the dramatic beneficial effects jump out – the blood pressure drop is exactly what I experienced too, even though I hadn’t got any bloods done until 8 weeks in – and yes, they were fantastically improved by then!: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4210559/pdf/12944_2014_Article_1142.pdf “The

Here’s a little preview of a rather interesting fundamental; I have lots of papers (from the past decade particularly) that capture this reality, but this one is well-executed and full of detail, summarized slide below. Not that we are not talking about the common-or-garden skin cancers (basal or squamous cell) – the latter are very resolvable
