treatment with 4,000 IU thanks to
the higher official UL.
It’s unfortunate that the IOM didn’t
raise the DRI significantly. An inter-
esting inconsistency is that it recom-
mends 400 IU for a newborn infant
and 600 IU for an adult woman,
pregnant or not. Think about it. The
IOM is recommending 400 IU for a
five- or six-pound infant (80–67 IU
per pound) and even for a 200-
pound pregnant woman, it is recom-
mending only about 3 IU per pound
or about 1/125th the amount. The
mother and baby inside the mother
need 600 IU and the baby alone
needs 400 IU. The IOM is suggesting
that the 195 pounds of the mother
alone needs only 200 IU of vitamin
D, which is about 1 IU per pound.
But as soon as the baby is born, the
combination needs 1,000 IU of vita-
min D. My contention is that if the
mother and baby need 1,000 IU as
soon as the baby is born, then they
also needed it when the baby was
still within the mother.
Passwater: The new report made a
couple of small strides forward, but I

felt the IOM was trying to save face
with old recommendations and
wanted to take only small steps. I
know that a couple of researchers on
the committee wanted to take larger
steps forward.
Cannell: One of the problems with
the structure of the IOM committee
is that if you served on the previous
committee, you can’t serve on the
new committee. This means that
some long-time experts in vitamin D
research could not be members now.
Another problem with the commit-
tees is that the dissenting viewpoints
are not published. You don’t even
know how much dissension there
was or how close the votes were. In
fact, they don’t pick “vitamin D
experts”; they pick “scientists.” Of
the dozen scientists on the vitamin D
committee, only three had extensive
experience in vitamin D research.
Passwater: The Committee needs
to take steps that are more in line
with the recent steps taken by sever-
al editors of medical journals towards
full disclosure.
Cannell: Yes, there even was a con-
flict of interest that has not been
widely talked about. One of the sci-
entists on the Board (or Committee)
had financial interest in what are
called vitamin D analogs. Here’s ho
the system works. Natural com-
pounds can’t be patented. If one
takes the vitamin D molecule and
changes it somehow such as adding
on another element, one can get a
patent on the new variation. All that
one has to do is make sure it doesn’
completely lose its effectiveness and
that it is not a naturally occurring
substance. Then, one can do a stud
and compare it with a placebo—not
natural vitamin D—and obtain a us
patent and apply for a new drug.
This is what happened with one of
the members and his university. The
patented ergocalciferol and contin-
ued funding the research with this
compound they also called vitamin
D. The same has been done with
analogs of the active hormone, 1,25
hydroxy vitamin D. Instead of studie
being funded comparing these
expensive patentable compounds
(drugs) with inexpensive natural vita
