In a new study, researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center used a complex computer prediction model to determine that intake of vitamin D3 and calcium would prevent 58000 new cases of breast cancer and 49000 new cases of colorectal cancer annually in the US and Canada. The researchers model also predicted that 75% of deaths from these cancers could be prevented with adequate intake of vitamin D3 and calcium. Join Dr. Cedric Garland, lead researcher on the study, as he discusses the implications of these findings and the proposed actions.

Dr. Garland’s information and research data supporting this model are posted on grassrootshealth’ site
I would love to see a map of ozone levels on top of the map of cancer rates. It would undoubtedly explain a lot, particularly the red areas around major cities in the south and west.
Calcium and milk? I wouldn’t really say that genericizeme…milk only has a small amount of D in it. I believe in order to get a dose that is anywhere NEAR what a normal adult human would need, you would be needing to ingest about 20 glasses *PER DAY*…I am not fond of some supplements but D is one I am staunchly supportive of.
And I disagree about the “20 min. of sun” carehappens b/c that depends on what latitude you are at, what time of the day, etc.
If you are talking 20 min. of noonday sun in texas in the summer, you may well be right. If you are talking 20 min. at 9 am in Edmonton Alberta…highly unlikely.
Once again modern science discovers the benefits of NATURE….wow.
Has anyone thought that perhaps those red areas on the map happen to be the MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS OF THE COUNTRY?? THE MORE CASES DIAGNOSED = MORE DEATHS IN PROPORTION….
On the map displayed in the video, LOS ANGELES looks to be a very densely populated area but has low rates of colorectal cancer, but definitely gets more sunshine than Chicago and/or New York. Same goes for Miami, Dallas – Ft. Worth, and Atlanta.
However, dont forget that you cant generate VITAMIN D (in the Skin) without Adequate CHOLESTEROL (the precursor). SATURATED FAT stores increase in SUNNIER areas which contributes to CHOLESTEROL (steroid/hormone)production. Thus, you need ANIMAL fats, CHEESE too.
Also, while im a BIG admirer of Dr. CEDRIC GARLAND, he is WRONG re CALCIUM. CALCIUM has MINIMAL effect on BONES. VITAMIN K would be more the complementary Nutrient u need. Vitamin K is King.
Dr. Moo-Twahz, N.D.
that does look to be the cause for the difference in the map. but if he used a percentage instead of simply the numer of cases then he would have eliminated the error.
but i find it strange that the area you would think would be the most blue, coast of florida, is not its actually slightly red. if someone has an answer why that is i would like to know
so why is the pacific northwest blue? its just as north as new England. we also have more than our share of rainy/cloudy days.
Is it not Vitamin D3?
curious – the large section of blue that goes further up north (through texas, CO, Utah) – a hell of alot of it is desert – thus alot more sun in these regions in the hotter months since it doesn’t rain as much. Perhaps the longer exposures to the sun in certain months makes up for less of it during the times of the year when the sun is lower. Also, perhaps in the farm states where residents spend more time outdoors, despite the region just get more sun. I live most of my day in a cubicle.
these are rates, not totals I believe
@Mutwasze Are you insane, bones are calcium. Vitamin K is important but you can not make strong bones without calcium, just as you can not make house without bricks.
Velik i see you too have been Hoodwinked and Bamboozled by that old CALCIUM theory? Apparently.
Contrary to the TEXTBOOK TEACHING–BONES are not CALCIUM-based my friend. They are STRONTIUM-based. In fact, adding CALCIUM to your Diet in an attempt to get more of it into the Bones actually THINS them rather than builds DENSITY. This thing about Calcium is some myth cooked up in a LABORATORY and sold to the Gullibles. Yet, many continue to perpetuate this BONES-AS-CALCIUM Myth.

Listen to the vid and you’ll have your answer. I live in the Pacific NW. We don’t have “more than our share of rainy/cloudy days” ! What we have we are supposed to have, making much of the Pacific NW a beautiful and rare temperate rainforest. I’m glad not to have the nonseasonal weather of lower latitudes. I love the moody and changeable NW. We are truly lucky to live on the NW coast, having fresh air and emerald green surroundings provided by rainfall! NW Indians found abundance here once.
Good work … I would like to know more please ???
black people need more sun… 89 % of the them in america have vitamin d deficiency
@Mutwasze coconut oil and red palm oil are also saturateds fats and much better for you
@Mutwasze
Calcium is somewhat important in bone production you are exactly right about the strontium, but I think that the form of calcium is most crucial. Calcium carbonate is porous (like chalk) calcium glycinate and citrate are much more dense forms.
We get enough calcium in our diets so you are right we dont need to supplement it in the first place, i would recommend a bone multi, with many cofactors. You have a great channel, and I like your honesty/integrity

@Mutwasze
use biotics research micro emulsified form of vitamin D, seems to be the best way to increase blood serum levels. Emulsification of oily vitamins is key in by passing the production of bile and conversion by the liver. Sun is great, supplementing with a professional grade supplement is good, but tough to raise serum levels to 100 ng/ml
I dont like eating dairy products, cheese and milk are mucus forming, and a host for fungal and yeast infections (Beyond the vagina for the layman)
@VelikiBedak bones are not made of of calcium alone, calcium is only a small part. Bones are made up of dozens of minerals. Read a great book called “The Calcium Lie” then you will learn the truth about calcium and why it is causing so many heart diseases in this country

Big Pharma is not happy with these findings.
Not surprisingly, the American Cancer Society refuses to support vitamin D and D3 as a prevention measure.
The thriving and massively profitable cancer treatment industry is on a dark mission to bury this information from the public.
Not a single shred of info about Vitamin D on American Cancer Society’s website or the Susan G. Komen site, just the same-old promos for dangerous mammograms, Chemo, radiation and pharmaceutical drugs.
How sad is that?!
look at that map… must be related to eating customs.
