The AP is reporting new research linking low vitamin D levels with deaths from heart disease and other causes. In fact, patients with the lowest blood levels of vitamin D were about two times more likely to die from any cause during the next eight years than those with the highest levels, the study found. The link with heart-related deaths was particularly strong in those with low vitamin D levels.

My Take?

LifeNews is reporting that The American Medical Association is coming under criticism for attacking pro-life pharmacists and others who want to opt out of dispensing objectionable drugs.

USA Today is reporting that the ethics council of the American Medical Association is pressing the doctors group to endorse the practice of undercover patients.

Some doctors are outraged at the idea. Others believe it is appropriate, with certain conditions.
