Book Description

December 19, 2006
When sunlight strikes skin it creates vitamin D, and without this nutrient we get weak and sick, are at risk of cancer and lupus, get osteoporosis and get depressed. The scientific literature shows that millions of Americans are deficient in vitamin D. Vitamin D isn't patentable. No one sends out drug reps to sell it to your doctor. So the deficiency that you likely have is probably undiagnosed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Winter Blahs? General Malaise? Read this book!, July 8, 2007
By 
Linda A. Lavid "Writer" (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vitamin D: Antidote to Winter and the Darkness (Paperback)
I had the pleasure of sitting next to Dr. Merrill at the Buffalo Book Fair. He is passionate about two things, Vitamin D and helping people improve the quality of their lives. This book tells his story and so much more. The general gist lies within the fact that diminished sun exposure with the accompanying lack of Vitamin D, adversely affects many organs in our bodies, thereby causing a wide range of malfunctioning systems found in such problems as mood and auto-immune disorders, cancers, muscle and bone weakness and generalized pain. In his book, Dr. Merrill presents a comprehensive argument for the inherent value of Vitamin D therapy. For those receptive to a holistic, preventative approach to health, this book will "light" the way.

5.0 out of 5 stars What every doctor should read..., February 15, 2008
This review is from: Vitamin D: Antidote to Winter and the Darkness (Paperback)
When a medical book begins with: "I dislike watching people suffer needlessly" - you know that you're in for good read. And this one is great. This book is concise, full of accurate information and it is full of clinically useful pearls. This needs to be required reading in medical school. As a family physician who discovered the emerging research on vitamin D about 14 months ago, I agree with Dr. Merrill - that vitamin D deficiency is the most pervasive disorder in America and yet it is the most underdiagnosed and inadequately treated.
