Isn't vitamin D contained in the butterfat?

In light of the info in that article... would it not be possible/preferable for

you to do the test Mercola recommends?...

I don't remember reading that, but maybe they said that. Krispin Sullivan's

article seemed to promote the idea that the vitamin D content was entirely

tied to their exposure to sunlight.

Chris-

I would assume so, but I believe it's WAPF doctrine that feeding pigs skim

milk from grassfed cows increases the vitamin D content of the resulting

lard. That could be wrong, though -- that's why I was asking.

Dedy-

Sure, if I had the money, and a doctor, since you can't ever get results of

tests yourself.

ooh - ok, it's time to ask, what's WAPF?

since we don't have enough house scraps to feed more than three little

piggies, i was telling my husband that i'd like to feed them [good] milk,

and he wanted to see some information on doing that...
