0:07.4

Where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing

healthy weight.

0:22.6

So I get this question a lot.

0:23.9

How much vitamin D should we be taking on a daily basis?

0:28.6

Well, I think we should probably go to the experts, right?

0:31.6

The Vitamin D Council stated that healthy adults, which I'm still trying to find some
