Interesting post too and yeah the sun definitely gives a nice dose of Vitamin D. Also I think the best source of Vitamin D out there is the Marine Coral Calcium, I saw on tv and it looks promising or something. Apparantly on one site it's said to have 204% (daily value) of Vitamin D (as Cholecalciferol). Also this one is off-topic but I saw this fruit or super-fruit I should say like more than a year ago or so called Camu Camu which is grown in the amazon rainforest in Peru not sure if you heard about this but yeah it has 30 times more Vitamin C than an orange and you know has other vitamins.. benefits.. to it too :). Anyway, anyway take care. lol wow cute baby picture :) . Interesting post too and yeah the sun definitely gives a nice dose of Vitamin D.

D level checked and it was at 21. I don't wear sunscreen either. This was after pregnancy and nursing for 2 years. I've since been supplementing with Vit. D3 drops and have yet to get my levels tested. I also think it's important to note that goat milk is lower in Vit. D and that this is a good medium to add the drops!

There are a lot of people who eat nutrient dense foods, but still suffer from nutrient deficiency. That's possible mostly because of poor absorption of nutrients in the guts. It's another reason to take excellent care of our guts -- getting lots of probiotics, living & fermented foods, and possibly even following a stricter protocol like the GAPS diet in order to re-establish gut balance.

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:30:14 +0000 http://www.foodrenegade.com/?p=1570#comment-5388 Well, I started NT type eating last year February and started taking FCLO for Vit D. Nine months later, as I got almost perpetually ill, I went and got my level tested. It was a sad, sad 21 - even after daily teaspoon or tablespoon of Green Pastures CLO and no sunscreen all summer. I wonder if mixing with butter oil would have had a better effect. But I ate tons of Kerry Gold and Organic Valley butter, which everyone seems to say is good enough. Not for me. I am now on a Vit D supplement (derived from lanolin) and feel much better. Anyway, don't assume your levels are okay just because you are eating well and taking CLO.

It seems like when we're pregnant, we need it even more. Add in the fact that it's winter and I spend a lot of time inside and, well, I think I should be taking more.

You can find a video presentation of his research here: http://www.uctv.tv/search-details.aspx?showID=15773 It's a long video, but well worth watching.

My second baby was 6 days late, easy labor, 11 lbs. My first was 2 days early (unusual for a first), rough labor, 6.5 lbs. I took a probiotic with my second as well, and ate a lot better, but it's interesting how it all adds up. We just got the fermented salty Green Pasture CLO and my kids (3 & 1) love it. I was surprised, I thought I'd have to hide it in stuff for them. .-= Cara @ Health Home and Happiness´s last blog post ...<a href="http://www.healthhomehappy.com/2010/01/what-do-you-eat-on-gaps-gut-and.html" rel="nofollow">What Do You Eat On GAPS?
