An 89-year-old retired businessman died from an “overdose” of Vitamin D supplements that did not warn about the risks of excessive intake.

David Mitchener from Oxted, Surrey, reportedly had fatally high levels of Vitamin D when he was brought to the East Surrey Hospital last year in May and was suffering from hypercalcaemia – a build-up of calcium in the body associated with taking too much vitamin D.

He died ten days later.

    We don’t need vitamin D supplements unless we are living down a hole

    Yeah the anti-cracker-aktion biome is typically a frozen wasteland with about 20 minutes of a sun a year

    One week at 36 degrees would wipe out most of the UK
