Summary: Jim Stephenson Jr., a leading expert in vitamin D biology with over 20 years of research experience, emphasizes the importance of natural vitamin D sources, such as sunlight and food, for optimal health. Contrary to its name, vitamin D is a hormone, not a vitamin. Studies on vitamin D supplementation reveal limited benefits for conditions like autoimmunity, obesity, cancer, and osteoporosis, and may even cause harm due to numerous side effects.  Jim's Substack: https://substack.com/@jimstephensonjr
