A reader recently sent me this book to review and share with you:
Sunshine and Vitamin D: A Comprehensive Guide to the Benefits of the “Sunshine Vitamin”
This book is 234 pages with 26 chapters.
It primarily covers relationships between vitamin D and various medical conditions, but for me one of the most interesting chapters was at the end, titled “how safe is vitamin D” in which the author presents evidence for higher but safe limits of vitamin D consumption, with the author concluding that many if not most of us get inadequate levels of vitamin D.
For nutrition enthusiasts, this is a great book and worthy of reading. It is inexpensive and an easy read, and highly referenced. But for those interested in how to improve your diet, this likely is too focused on a single topic. Overall I give this book a “B”.
