   "Further, the ability of Vitamin D to control gene expression was found   
   to improve in direct portion to dosage size or vitamin D status. The   
   impressive results of this study were achieved at the relatively low   
   dosage of just 2,000 IU a day of vitamin D-3. Further, it suggests that   
   higher doses of "D" would have resulted in even more gene expression."   
      
   Ah, anyone who has studied biology knows instantly the flaw in the above.   
   There is a minimal, an optimal, and a maximal level in any biological   
   process.  Themin to have any effect, the ott to have the best results, and   
   the max where increasing something has no added benefit and becomes toxic   
   or otherwise undesired.   
      
   The connection between vit d and heart disease risk is an example.  Below   
   and above a rather narrow range of blood vit d the risk of heart disease   
   increases.
