Vitamin C and D Deficiency in History

Why was vitamin D deficiency rampant? Let's talk about a few things. There's actually a dentist, Weston A. Price, who actually went around the world, travel around the world, he realized that using high vitamin butter, places that use that actually could help prevent cavities as well as decrease the severity of tuberculosis. And high vitamin butter, which is the really yellow stuff, was rich in fat, cycloid viruse, especially vitamin d. In the 1920s, we realized mainly in Europe, but kind of here a little bit, that if you put people in solariums are basically these kind of mountaintop spa like places that people just lay out and get the sun. People's tuberculosis actually got better. And it's actually a common place. In the 1700, 1800s, when people got tuberculosis to get away, to relax, but also get out in the sun, they intuitively figured out that sun exposure somehow made people's tuberculosis better. Vitamin D. So just two things, vitamin C and vitamin D in our history made us more susceptible to a lot of illnesses. So what can you do about that vitamin D? Get in the sun. It's great for you. If you can't get in the sun, get your levels checked. Of course, if your optimal levels are between 60 and 80, vitamin C is super easy.
