Editor’s note: This is a response by Dr William Grant to a paper recently published in the journal Nature Reviews Endocrinology, titled “Common misconceptions about vitamin D-implications for clinicians.”
The perspective on vitamin D by Rosen and Taylor1 defends the Institute of Medicine’s recommendations on vitamin D. According to http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/, there have been 7891 publications with vitamin D in the title or abstract published since its posting date, but not acknowledged by Rosen and Taylor. This correspondence responds to some of the claims by these authors.
Just curious! Does this mean that his response only shows up here on the blog or does a copy get sent to Maine Medical Center Research Institute, 81 Research Drive, Scarborough, ME 04074, USA?
