Here is another link to lectures on vitamin D.
These are long talks and will take several
days to listen to and are in depth.
This material is for "grown-ups" in a sense
and isn't too dumbed down for the unwashed
masses. As I recall it best to save some
of the early talks until last. So don't start
at the beginning.....trust me on this.

Is there any text available?

What's the gist of it?

I have not seen the text anywhere.

I saw the lecture about one and half weeks ago, so I don't remember it in
detail but the central message is that vitamin D deficiency is common all
over the world; sufficient vitamin D would reduce the risk of many diseases
(osteoporosis, diabetes, many cancers, infectious diseases, hypertension,
some skin diseases, MS); and much higher doses of vitamin D are needed than
what the official recommendations currently are. Nothing new actually, but
the lecture is very convincing and well presented.
