Re: Why Everyone – Especially Those With Cancer – Should Take Vitamin D
Yes. I take about 2-4,000 units of vitamin D3 too, and it is a common practice here at Duke University where I am at now, to give it to the elderly to boost their immunity.
Other strong anti-cancer and general health is to supplement with Organic Cold Pressed Omega 3 AND Omega 6 Oils from seeds (non-fish oil-thus not rancid or with possible toxins) about 1-2 tablespoons a day. Make sure the RATIO OF OMEGA 3:OMEGA 6 IS EQUAL (1:1 OR 1:2 IN FAVOR OR OMEGA 6).
The rational/research claiming that Omega 6 causes inflammation is based on rancid oils that are denatured and WILL cause inflammation. So will rancid/denatured Omega 3.
Where to get this clean Oil: JARROW FORMULA ESSENTIAL BALANCE OMEGA NUTRITION 3-6-9 AT iHerb.com or VitaminTrader.com for example. Google it.
It is often listed under EFA's or COMBO OILS.
I am a Family Practitioner and worked at Stanford Univ. Hospital too. I see great stuff happening with my patients on this stuff. Especially some of the diabetics and chronic diseased folks. For more info go to Brianpeskin.com. I do not agree with his high protein/animal source nutrition but his research into EFA Oils as anti-cancer is wonderful.

All the best!
