Preparedness Course Errata: Vitamin B Versus Vitamin D

Permalink

My apologies for not catching an error in the "Rawles Gets You Ready" preparedness course. On page 14, there were references to Vitamin B being fat soluble. Either I mis-spoke, or the transcriber misheard me. Either way, my apologies! To clarify: Vitamin B and Vitamin C are water soluble, so they cannot be over-dosed. The human body just sheds what is not needed, through urination. In contrast, Vitamins A,D, E, and K are fat soluble. The greatest risk of overdosing is with Vitamin D-3. Vitamin D over-dosing happens most often with over-anxious young mothers that mistakenly assume that if one daily dose of liquid vitamins for their toddler is good, then three or four doses is even better. Another risk is to bear hunters: Bear livers have such concentrated Vitamin D, that eating an entire bear liver can be lethal! Never eat more that a 1/2-inch cube of bear liver per week.

For those of you that already own a copy of the course, please pen in the correction. The error will be corrected in future printings.
