Most people in the United States consume less than recommended amounts of vitamin D . An analysis of data from the 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) found that average daily vitamin D intakes from foods and beverages were 4.3 mcg in men, 3.8 mcg in women, and 5 mcg (200 IU) in children aged 2–19 years ( NHANES 2017 - 2018 ). What Is Vitamin D? Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning that it dissolves in fats and oils and can be stored in your body for a long time. Vitamin D is important to the body in many ways.

Muscles need it to move, for example, nerves need it to carry messages between the brain and every body part, and the immune system needs vitamin D to fight off invading bacteria and viruses. Together with calcium, vitamin D also helps protect older adults from osteoporosis. Vitamin D is found in cells throughout the body. Vitamin D Market Size The Global Vitamin D Market size was ...

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -
Image
A few years ago,  William (Bill) Harris, Ph.D  founded the Fatty Acid Research Institute (FARI) 1   in South Dakota, which specializes in epidemiological research, where they look at the relationship between blood omega-3 levels and risk for disease. He's also a faculty member of the University of South Dakota School of Medicine. "We're trying to build a case that omega-3 levels in the blood are as, if not more, important than knowing your cholesterol level when it comes to your health and being able to control it,"  he says. Update: A  2024 study  published in BMJ Medicine suggests that regular use of fish oil may contribute to atrial fibrillation and stroke among the general population. The Omega-3 Index What he's referring to is the level of omega-3 in your red blood cell membranes.

Healthcare AI: In the ‘Wild West’ of AI Health Care, These 4 Things Could Go Very Wrong

By Dr Frank Yap, MD -

Artificial intelligence (AI) is making headlines, and the reviews are mixed. Though the United States leads the world in AI investment, Americans remain skeptical. According to a global survey ( pdf ) by Ipsos, “Only 35 percent of sampled Americans agreed that products and services using AI had more benefits than drawbacks.” Among surveyed countries, the United States had one of the lowest percentages of those who agreed with the statement. Private industry has edged out academia in producing state-of-the-art AI systems; at the same time, the number of incidents of  ethical misuse of AI  has increased dramatically—from 10 in 2012 to more than 250 in 2021. The field is growing in what could be called a “Wild West” of AI. According to Stanford University’s  AI Index Report , “AI has moved into its era of deployment; throughout 2022 and the beginning of 2023, new large-scale AI models have been released every month.” These models include Stable Diffusion, Whisper, DALL-E 2, ...
