  • Dr Mark Draper on Vitamin D

    Dr Mark Draper is a former anaesthetist who's been a General Practitioner for more than 30 years. He's also trained as a nutritionist and has run courses in nutrition with a special focus on micronutrition. 

    Here we discuss the importance of Vitamin D3 and supplementation in the UK during winter (and possibly all year around) relative to variables like lifestyle, skin pigmentation, amount of clothing an individual wears etc. Relative to seasonality we talk about the possibility of banking vitamin D3, but the dance between getting enough sunlight without suffering sunburn and/or skin damage. 

    We also touch on selenium and zinc too and discuss the varying quality of soil in the western world and how this may affect differing requirements of supplementation (e..g. Canadians and Americans consume food grown in more replete soil than British people).
