Yes mine too. But how did your health improve?

There “mood” and all that, but placebo has a heavy affect here.

The more direct question is how lifespan and cancer rate track between:

High D levels via supplementation and low sun exposure

High D levels via no supplementation and high sun exposure

Low D levels with low sun exposure

Low D levels with high sun exposure

(And of course those between)

The goal is to determine whether D itself is improving longevity and cancer rate, which would be implied by improved metrics in the group with high supplementation and low sun exposure. If this group doesn’t fare better, the D levels may be a misleading indicator of health, and those living longer with high D levels are doing so because of their increased sun exposure (as opposed to the raw blood D level offered by supplementation)
