Diane Rehm of NPR had an interesting show on NPR today. The discussion concerned Vit D (yet again!). The show can be heard on the NPR/Diane Rhem website and is aired again tonight(at least here on the U.S. East coast) at 10pm, I believe.

Among the highlights:

optimum Vit D levels protected against 60% of ALL cancers!

More studies need to be done as this one study involved a small number of Caucasian women only (no men) .

Up to 2000 IU of Vit D ddialy can be safely ingested.

The researchers all supplemented with at least a minumum of 400 IU daily.
