Book Reviews of The Vitamin D Cure

Book Review: Poorly written
Summary: 1 Stars

Enthusiastic, one-size fits all.
There is some information that I agree with, but I'm not sure whether to trust new information because the book is so sloppily written. Blood vitamin D levels are offered as numbers without units. The references listed at the end are not connected with pages or topics; you'd have to sort through them yourself to find support for the assertions made in the text. The quiz you can take to determine your risk of D-deficiency is skewed so that almost everyone will come out "at high risk". The acid-base balancing is heavily skewed toward the diet of meat and produce that he recommends, without giving any explanation of how the point values for each food were derived, or saying what exactly is "a serving" of any food, or why he thinks cheese is the ultimate bad food. I find it especially odd that bread and pasta are separated from cereals, and that they have quite different values from each other (2,6 and 8).
One useful thing is knowing that you can get the UVI for your area from various websites to help figure out how much sun to get.
This is an ok place to start- but go on, and do more research to figure out what fits for you.
