Vitamin D Prevents Cancer Is It True? - Carole, Baggerly,

SHE WAS AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME WITH THE RIGHT QUESTION! HER QUESTION-- LENGTHENED AN ASSEMBLNG OF DOCTORS AND RESEARCHERS WHO WERE GATHERED TO SHARE THEIR NEWLY MOUNTING RESULTS IN THE STUDY OF THE VALUES OF VITAMIN ' D'. THESE DOCTORS AND UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR'S EXHIBITS, COLLECTIVELY, HIT CAROLE BAGGERLY' DIRECTLY IN HER HEART, SHE ASKED THEM ;'' HOW COULD THEY GET THIS INFORMATION OUT?'' SHE WANTED EVERY ONE TO KNOW WHAT SHE HAD JUST LEARNED; THE IMPORTANCE OF THE UNDERESTIMATED VITAMIN 'D', FOR ALL DISEASES.

CAROLE, NEEDED NO ENCOURAGEMENT TO TAKE THEIR OFFERS TO VISIT THEM AND MAKE USE OF WHAT SHE COULD. THUS, THE BEGINNING OF ''GRASSROOTS HEALTH ORGANIZATION VIT 'D [NOT FOR PROFIT]-

IN PUBLIC, ONLINE, FREE, VIDEOS, SHE SHARES HER 2005, CANCER STORY, AND, HAS SPEAKERS, AS WILLING AS SHE, TO TELL THE SPECIFICS OF HOW VITAMIN 'D' CAN CHANGE OUR HEALTH AND THE EXPENSIVE COSTS AND PHYSICAL TRIALS OF SICKNESS.
WITH GRAPHS AND MEASURES [FOR DOWN LOADING] THIS SUBJECT IS FOR EVERYONE AND ALL DISEASES IN PREVENTION AND TREATMENT.
. THIS MEETING WAS THE BEGINNING OF GRASSROOTS HEALTH ORGANIZATION .

Thanks for posting, Betty. Members can watch the videos and read the D Action plan at grassrootshealth.net.

HEY SPEEDY... I JUST FINISHED THAT.

I HAVE BEEN INTO CAROLE'S EVERY WORD.. SHE IS A GIFT.

Don't you suppose that OTHERS can get the good of this--

OR WILL IT BE IGNORED AND NOT UNDERSTOOD TO BE IMPORTANT.....THINKING THAT IT IS 'SMOKE'
GOD's
PLAN FOR US. ---SAME AS THE MANNAN THAT WAS SPREAD FOR FOOD, LIKE FROST..

BIG-TIME EFFORT ON BAGGERLY TO TRY TO SAVE OTHERS THE ANGUISH SHE HAD. HER VIDEOS ARE JUST EXCELLENT.

I CAN'T PRODUCE IN THE SMALL PRINT===IT IS CAPS OR NOTHING WITH ME..

millie

i wish that i had written this softer..it is so stiff. There is so much to get from grassroots, besides information, they do the tests== to see the level of our -current -----D ---then in a year do the same test to see the improvement--- and cheaper than doctors--who really dont have the rest of the information needed to make good use of the tests?

I LISTEN to the videos, but will have to listen more to understand the numbers . i assume there are varied tests-- each done according to the measure of blood--not being a chemist it annoys me to have it in milliletes AS IF I AM SUPP0SED TO UNDERSTAND AND RETAIN THAT FORMULA.

IT DOES SOUND LIKE OUR D LEVEL RAISES A CERTAIN DEGREE AT EACH designated TEST LEVEL..

AND SO FAR IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS NO TOXIC STATE IN VIT D==AND EVEN --MAYBE NO TOO HIGH DOSE --DAILY? at any rate--they are getting us up there-- getting us to thinking HIGHER.

Has the grassroots information influencd you. i am hoping the sun comes out for some minutes in it TODAY ..

This is fantastic news Bettyrenshaw!!!!! Thanks for sharing. Now that we are exposed to osteo, we see that there is very little information out there and can't really count on the medical profession either. TOGETHER, maybe we can make a difference.

Oh, Owie

THANK YOU

I was afraid that my information --is being missed and I am happy you wrote telling me THAT YOU UNDERSTAND IT. I NEEDED THAT.

Carole Baggerly is passionate. Look at ALL of her several videos...She is doing a great job and all for us!

OWIE, there are many clinicians that have focus and working on bone loss. The clinicians that are on the panel of the NOF meetings as well as the clinicians that attend the meetings are very passionate about care for people with bone loss and doing all that they can in preventing fracture. Unfortunately, many of the doctors that you and I may have are not accessing the information at NOF. How can a doctor care for my bone loss if they are not current with the information on www.nof.org which has information specific to health professionals. You may be interested in Searching the NOF journal on the community: NOF Helps Professionals Reach More Patients. But we also have to advocate for our doctors or a member of their office staff to stay on top of osteoporosis information.

owie

did the NOF have any help for you. iT IS CONFUSING TO Me... I DID NOT SEE ANY THING THERE THAT EXPLAINS TREATMENT,, I DID SEE WHERE MEDICARE [D] pays for drugs

, but vitamin AND MINERALS ARE NOT DRUGS. and most people here wont do the drugs now....they do vit D, e, c, cop10, calcium, magnesium, etc........

medicare wont pay for those but they are cheap ands we can buy them any where.... my insurance paid for my 50,000 iu vit D... come to think of it.
