The Vitamin D Newsletter

December 28, 2008

The Vitamin D Council is happy to announce that we have partnered with ZRT

Laboratory to provide an inexpensive, $65.00, in-home, accurate, vitamin D

[25(OH)D] test. The usual cost for this test is between $100.00 and $200.00.

(IF ANY OF YOU CURRENTLY HAVE ON HAND A KIT AND ORDER FOR VIT D FROM ME AND

HAVEN'T HAD YOUR BLOOD DRAWN YET, PLEASE DISCARD THAT ORDER AND SAVE YOURSELF

SOME $ AND A MAYBE A TRIP TO THE LAB, IF THAT WAS ALL YOU WERE GOING FOR (I'VE

BEEN ORDERING THEM A LOT LATELY).

If you read this newsletter, you know about our interest in accurate vitamin D

testing. In the next few weeks, you may read about the Vitamin D Council's quest

for accurate vitamin D blood tests in the national media. Before we partnered

with ZRT, we verified, repeatedly, that ZRT provides accurate and reliable

vitamin D tests and that their method corresponds very well to the gold standard

of vitamin D blood tests, the DiaSorin RIA.

Our ZRT service is not just inexpensive, it means no more worrying about your

doctor ordering the right test or interpreting it correctly. You buy the test

kit on the internet or by phone, a few days later the kit comes in the mail, you

or a nurse friend do a finger stick, collect a few drops of blood, and send the

blotter paper back to ZRT in the postage paid envelope provided with the kit. A

week later you get results back in the mail and know accurate 25-hydroxy-vitamin

D levels of you and your family.

For every test you order, ZRT will donate $10.00 to the Vitamin D Council.

Please read the new page hyperlinked below on our website as it both explains

the procedure and how to order the test.

Executive summary: keep your family's 25-hydroxy-vitamin D blood test above 50

ng/ml, year around. Most adults need at least 5,000 IU per day, especially this

time of year. Most children need at least 1,000 IU per day per every 25 pounds

of body weight. Bio Tech Pharmacal provides high quality and inexpensive vitamin

D. Currently Bio Tech Pharmacal is providing vitamin D for numerous scientific

studies. To see their prices and for ordering, click the hyperlink below.

As a gift to our readers for the New Year, Thorne publications have provided a

free download to a basic paper about vitamin D. I wrote it earlier this year for

educated lay people as well as health care practitioners. Please read this paper

carefully, your family's well-being, even lives, may depend on you understanding

it.
