Interesting thanks
For pensioners, like me, supplements are too expensive
Although I once went to an orthomolecular specialist and was taking a handful of supplements three times a day. After about 3 months I certainly felt healthier but a lot poorer

SIDS must be the worst thing that could happen to any body.
My baby daughter had a fit caused by high temp. caused by a cold. she looked limp and dead.
I yelled for my wife for help Rushed her to hospital etc
This is common in babies they say. just put the baby in a tepid bath! I wish they would warn every new parent though
I could not talk for a week because my throat was raw from yelling for help.
My wife was a paddock away but at first thought my yell was from a wounded animal.
This from a guy who didn't want babies.

So how do babies get C? It is water, not fat, soluble so would it be in fatty breast milk?

I was a bit amazed by the research that showed mushroom Vit D shot up 4? times after exposure to a bit of sunlight. Most mushrooms here are grown in caves; so you wonder how much D they contain. Maybe there is a lot more vit. D deficiency out there than we realise..
I read the US FDA is going to ask mushroom growers in the Stales to give mushrooms a burst of sunlight before harvesting them. I wonder how long "D" lasts in supermarket shelves?

You can buy 'mushroom -growing kits' here at nurseries
I grew one one once.Fun, and probably well worth the money.

If I was in Canada or a Guantanamo Bay Cell I would take a supplement or eat lots of field mushrooms.
But even in Australia now people, more and more, are avoiding the sun for fear of skin cancer.

This was interesting:-
