OT-TB and Vit D

[Shannon Nelson]

This is off-topic, but for anyone dealing with TB, seems potentially
important. The two sources cited--Forbes and New England Journal of
Medicine--are I believe both quite well-regarded.

When it comes, it comes fast - and all in the same day.
First, laboratory evidence tuberculosis can be prevented by vitamin D.
Science DOI: 10.1126/science.1123933
Next, a Forbes magazine article with the same message.
Vitamin D Protects Against Tuberculosis

Then, straight off the press, a controlled clinical study showing
vitamin D resulted in a 100% cure rate for TB patients. In case the
New England Journal of Medicine cares, they treated TB patients
with 10,000 units a day, not 400.

interesting how 'the cure' used to be fresh mountain air, simply fresh food
and sun!

Well, "sun" equals, at least in part, "vitamin D"! And "mountain air"
equals (at least in part) "stronger sun"... But other than that--yes,
and people often died. If vitamin D could be the latest "wonder drug"
for it, that seems like a good thing! One hundred percent cure rate
sounds not too shabby!

I was able to reach the Forbes article, but not the one on controlled study that resulted in 100% cure. And the vitamin D council e-newsletter subscription does not accept my e-mail address !!!???!!.
Can anyone forward more info on the 110% cure study, or links to it.
