  1. Also, I do not like vitamin D supplementation much because I fear permanent
    calcification, especially around the heart.

    How to get enough sun for good vitamin D status in the cold winter months
    when any skin exposed is skin frozen?

  2. Your fear of reasonable vitamin D supplementation is unreasonable.
    In a person not getting sun, 4000 IU per day is a reasonable dose.
    This will prevent the winter time elevation of parathyroid hormone
    which likely can increase chances of your feared problem.
    Further, a vitamin K supplement of at least a milligram per
    day who do much to prevent ectopic calcification.

    In some countries, Vitamin K is not available unless by prescription for
    blood coagulation treatment. I happen to live in such a communism.

  5. Not an issue in southern US (Frostbite that is) but what about sitting by a
    window exposed directly to the sun. We did that with my son when he first
    came home to help with the belirubin (jaundice).
