Harvard School of Public Health study is expected to show that adequate vitamin D levels reduce cancer risk by 30 percent, increasing pressure on the U.S. Department of Agriculture to raise the recommended daily consumption of the nutrient.
The new data also are likely to add to the chorus of vitamin D advocates who say it is time to lighten up on the anti-Sun message.

Dear Friends of Primo Magazine,
Now that I am a retired physician, I’m a patient!
For the first time, I’m on the other side and I don’t like what I see.
I remember when my staff greeted everyone with a smile, offered coffee or tea, asked about the family, and gave them the feeling that we really cared.
In addition, and most importantly, everyone was given a copy of his or her records with the admonition to keep all medical records in their own health file. My parting words to them were usually, “The value of an EKG and other tests is the comparison with previous tests.”
My office staff reminded them to get a copy of their records from any other doctor if they were referred for consultation.
In contrast, nowadays, at my first visit, no smile, no greeting, just a harried look and the notorious question, “What insurance do you have?” I didn’t know what to do with the smile on my face.
Hundreds of pages of
Personal Medical Records fit in just one PocketMD CD
It seems no one cares how long you are sitting in the waiting room. Even when they abandon you in the smaller room no one has any interest. When the doctor finally gets there you feel pressured to talk quickly so you do not take up too much of his time.
Every possible test is done with the appropriate reimbursement code. Getting the results or an explanation of the results is another story. The records, same thing!
My husband, a retired professor of Medicine, was recently a patient. The experience was nothing short of nightmare. We needed second and third opinions. Getting all the medical records was another nightmare. When John Howard showed me the PocketMD system I knew I wanted to help him get this message out and make it an important part of my retirement.
We all know how life can get complicated. If the unlucky day should occur that we find ourselves in the ER, the PocketMD CD could be the determining factor between life and death!
Unfortunately Diabetics are at increased risk for stroke, heart attacks, abnormally high glucose levels and abnormally low glucose levels. Having your Doctor in your pocket, capable of holding 200 pages of crucial information about you, insures your safety anywhere in the world.
"My objective is to bring traditionally trained medical doctors up to date with the public’s growth toward natural alternatives to good health. It is my opinion that the traditionally trained doctor should be the gatekeeper for all the disciplines of medicine. Many forms of therapy were created before the advent of penicillin and other “miracle” drugs. Although the Pharmaceutical Industry has changed the course of mankind, the overuse and abuse of these drugs is contrary to the basic law of Medicine. “First Do No Harm” was the admonition of Hippocrates. It is time to seek out safe alternatives and use drugs safely—for the good of the patient, and to maintain the high standards specific to the medical profession."
