Hey, I loved the webcast by Dr. Holick, thanks. It was packed with valuable information on vitamin D, was funny, extremely interesting and educational. Everyone here would benefit to listen!

Yes,the sunshine vitamin decreases breast tumor proliferation and increases differantiation to stop breast cancer in its tracks. However, as the webcast points out, you need at least 75nmol/L to get get vitamin D3 to work on the cellular tumor level. I will be checking my level in a few weeks. Hope it is up there.

PS. I am finally starting to read your book and find it very interesting, up-beat and motivational. ( will give you a good review when I finish it)
