An Interesting Study Involving Vitamin D And Colon Cancer

Post by tex »

Hi All,

Apparently, there must be good evidence that vitamin D can help to prevent certain types of colon cancer, (at least in certain ethnic groups), or this test never would have been proposed. The name of the trial is Preventing Colon Cancer in African Americans With Colon Polyps: Vitamin D Supplement.

The results may be quite interesting.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
