    I just caught a bit of your report on Thursday the 12th of September which discused Triglisorites. My son who is 38 years old has had his Triglisorites count up to over 3,000. He has been keeping it down but much more than normal. Is there any new medicine or treatment that you might inform me of.
    Thank you.

    The latest data on how keeping your vitamin D levels up prevents cancer should be the biggest news of the century. If you are interested in vitamin D you should take a look at http://www.vitaminD3world.com The Canadian Cancer Society now recommends that everyone take vitamin D to prevent cancer. The site has good summaries of the data and offers a new preparation of vitamin D in a micro-pill formulation. The pills have been formulated with cellulose which absorbs water very quickly. This ensures that the pill breaks up very quickly to provide for maximum absorption. The micro pill is tiny and tasteless. Many vitamin D pills on the market have very poor dissolution properties resulting in poor absorption.
    The site also offers to supply customers with a free supply of 400IU for their children and it also has a good newsletter.
