  1. Too much is obviously too much, but if you fear the vitamin D would calcify your arteries, you also have to take K2 vitamin, to make sure that calcium you absorb more of thanks to vit D, goes into the bones, not calcifying your arteries. Hence the best health therapy is a varied diet with plentiful various nutritious sources, to make sure we will get enough of everything we need, instead of overdoing it with a handful of compounds, out of context, some competing for absorption with each other, so taking too much of one will knock-off the other and cause another deficiency.

  2. You would ideally get corporate money also out of politics. Each party would get a fixed amount of money from the taxpayer and were banned from corporate funding and bribes which only makes them serving the corporations at the detriment of citizens.

  3. Also, I remember reading how the omega3 supplements didn't show the same effects as consumption of fish, but one would need to look more closely at the study design, for how long it lasted, what pool of people it was studied on, how they measured the effect (biomarkers aren't the same as real cases of heart attack) and perhaps what supplement it was, because they vary in quality. Just taking a conclusion of one or couple studies and take it as a final verdict, is wrong.

  4. This isn't a trouble with chicken. It is the trouble of corporations running the circus (politics).
