NEW ~ ?'s about Vit D Toxicity

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I am new to this list. I have just read Nutrition and Physical

Degeneration and am stunned! I have been on a very healthy (pro-price)

diet, including raw goats milk, and pasture-fed butter, prior to

reading the book. After reading his book I am wondering if I could use

even more butter (I have intense cravings for ice cream) and add cod

liver oil to my diet. However, I am nervous about Vit D toxicity.

Mercola.com says you should test first, I do get a good amount of sun

(live in AZ) but even the 'primitive' people got a lot of sun and

still had the deficiency (right?). I see information about Vit A and

am comfortable with that, although I have some minor liver 'problems'

(according to a holistic MD) due to lots of medication (in the past, I

no longer take any meds), my tests results are within main stream

medical norms. I have a history of depression,

aggression/irritability, gluten intolerance, IBS, eye problems, just

to name a few. I also have a child with asthma/allergies, controlled

by homeopathic meds and another with cavaty and white blotchy teeth.

Anyone have any input on this?

Thanks

A Mom
