Guest guest Posted January 17, 2003 Report Share Posted January 17, 2003 " laatest on vitamin D from the New York Times science page. Take everything with a grain of salt; the world is a magical place constantly waiting for our wits to grow sharper. love, ceep " Q. I have been told that the vitamin D added to skim milk (because removing fat removes the D) remains entirely on the side of the container, so that it is effectively not available. Is this true? " A " The amount of vitamin D3 in the milk, and the amount that one gets from its consumption, is the amount that's stated on the label, " said Dr. Sheldon S. Hendler, co-editor of the PDR for Nutritional Supplements. Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, the form of D found in milk, is practically insoluble in water, he said, so one would think there would be none or very little in fat-free milk. But, he said, vitamin D in any type of milk, fat-free or not, is mainly bound to proteins (which are the same in all types of milk) and is not found free in solution or bound to the wall of the milk carton. " This is also how vitamin D is transported in the blood, " he said, " bound to vitamin D-binding proteins in the blood. " Vitamin D is a conditional vitamin, Dr. Hendler explained; that is, it is only a vitamin, a substance required in the diet, when the body does not make it in the skin through the action of ultraviolet rays from the sun. The vitamin D in milk comes either from the cow's milk itself (the cow also makes cholecalciferol in its skin through the UV activation of 7-dehydrocholesterol) or from the fortification of the milk with cholecalciferol. Most of the vitamin D3 in milk comes from fortification, Dr. Hendler said. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 Yeah, Deb, but my doc told me that no matter how much the sun shines up here, it is not direct enough to give us *any* vitamin D in the winter. So even normies need to supplement this far north. I was a bit surprised by that, but guess she's right..ever notice how far south that sun is in the sky? It may be sunny, but the rays are not direct enough to help us.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 Well, if we were FAST enough, maybe. Run outside, rip the clothes off, stand there shivering or run around in circles exposing as much body as possible before a cloud comes by and covers it again. Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.
