While I am no fan of synthetics, I am calling shenanigans on this...
"( I can not list the sources as they are links to other web sites... and our site can not link to other sites.)"

YEAH RIGHT!

When talking vitamin D, you have 2 kinds. D2 and D3. D2 is plant derived. D3 is animal derived. D2 is poorly utilized and can cause toxicity. D3 does not have these issues. The most common source of D3 is sheep lanolin.

I think its because he is trying to stay out of the FDA limelight. They would like nothing better then to shut him down, and linking to studies like that draw unwanted attention.

Low Mg++ is detrimental- as a horse owner I know this. But it isn't clear to me why D3 would deplete magnesium.

Me either. And I did a little digging around yesterday and there is only one place that makes non-lanolin D3 and it comes from some kind of yeast. It is only approved for poultry at this point. There is no synthetic D3 for people that I can find.
