Sorry this off yopic but I really don't know where else to ask. I believe we're probably all short of Vit D especially here in Scotland. I'd ordered some supplements (Biolife Vit D3) and started taking them. I persuaded my doc to test my blood levels (no idea what test they actually did) and he agreed I wasmarginally low. so prescribed One-Alpha 0.25mcg alfacalcidol. now I may just be highly suspicious of the medical profession but this looks more like a medicine than a drug and I'm finding it very hard to get any info on it. Does anyone know anything about it? thanks Kirsteen
