Catherine asks:
"I wonder if Motherlove herbals or some other company that is
already set
up to make supplements (and can be trusted not to undermine
breastfeeding in promotion) would like to make a vitamin D only
preparation. "
Great idea!!!
Another point about babies outcomes when short in Vitamin D. At a
recent affiliate meeting, a doctor was discussing this concern and
related the very sad story of a baby that wound up with severe brain
damage before the cause was discovered. It's not just rickets, but
shortage in Vit can change the body's ability to appropriately use
calcium and this is what led to this unfortunate outcome.
