Stalker noted another medical research piece extolling the virtues of proper vitamin D intake specifically for older folk.
The item stressed the importance of the vitamin for keeping the brain in good working order, but also its importance in reducing arthritis, osteoporotic fractures, as well as heart disease and some cancers.
Professor Tim Spector, of King's College London, carried out research into the effect of vitamin D.
As mushrooms are now regarded as a very good source of the vitamin, Stalker will now be upping the intake of the fresh produce and getting more time in the sun, just to ward off the brain heebie jeebies from settling in.
Stalker wonders if the new promotions from the Mushroom Bureau and Bord Bia will be highlighting these potentially beneficial effects?
