The Dangers of The Sun - Bollocks Reporting


According to the Telegraph too long in the sun could be deadly, as scientists reveal that too much vitamin D can lead to strokes or a heart attack.

What brings the Telegraph to this conclusion?

A study published in the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism which warned for the first time of the effect on heart health of excess vitamin D. It found having too much vitamin D in our blood can be bad for our health has never been proven before - and it may have great influence on future intake of nutritional supplements. 

Professor of clinical medicine Peter Schwarz said:
"We have studied the level of vitamin D in 247,574 Danes, and so far, it constitutes the world's largest basis for this type of study.

We have also analysed their mortality rate over a seven-year period after taking the initial blood sample, and in that time 16,645 patients had died.

Furthermore, we have looked at the connection between their deaths and their levels of vitamin D. If your vitamin D level is below 50 or over 100 nanomol per litre, there is an greater connection to deaths.

We have looked at what caused the death of patients, and when numbers are above 100, it appears that there is an increased risk of dying from a stroke or a coronary. 

In other words, levels of vitamin D should not be too low, but neither should they be too high. Levels should be somewhere in between 50 and 100 nanomol per litre, and our study indicates that 70 is the most preferable level. 

These are very important results, because there is such great focus on eating vitamin D. We should use this information to ask ourselves whether or not we should continue to eat vitamins and nutritional supplements as if they were sweets. 

You shouldn't simply up the dose to feel better. We should only consume such vitamins in close coordination with our GP." 
In other words, don't overdose on vitamin D supplements (eminently sensible advice!).

None of the above warns about the dangers of vitamin D generated by sunbathing. In other words the Telegraph didn't read what the Professor said, and made its own bollocks conclusion to generate an attention grabbing headline!
