What Exactly is Free Enterprise?

What Exactly is Free Enterprise?

 What Exactly is Free Enterprise?

Free enterprise refers to a market-based economic system driven by market forces, rather than by government interference. Often referred to as a free market system, the private sector is given the economic freedom to make its own economic decisions on what to buy and sell, how much it wants to work or risk, and how it chooses to participate in businesses.

How Does a Free Enterprise System Work?

A free enterprise system follows the “laissez-faire” concept of economic freedom, where the optimal functioning of markets needs minimal government intervention.

Free enterprise is built upon four economic units, or components, each with its own role to play:

  1. Households: These units own most of the country’s economic resources and voluntarily decide how to use them—such as labor and consumption.
  2. Companies: These economic units are started by entrepreneurs, who look to innovate, compete, and organize resources of the households and turn that into economic profits.
  3. Markets: Markets act as agents, or brokers, to bring buyers and sellers together so they can exchange goods, services, resources, or money. Prices should be set with little government interference.
  4. Governments: Their role is to act as a protector and to define, maintain, and protect the rule of society—not to control supply and demand.

Free enterprise is based upon personal freedom. No one is forced to buy or sell anything they don’t want to. Both buyers and sellers are better off in a transaction—the seller can make a profit and the buyer can obtain a good or service that they want. This mutual benefit for companies and households is meant to drive entrepreneurialism.

Free markets benefit a society as households are able to express individual tastes and preferences, rather than have a central authority determine what is produced or consumed.

What are the Characteristics of a Free Enterprise System?

The American economics system of free enterprise has four basic principles:

  1. Freedom of choice: Buyers and sellers have the freedom of choosing with whom and at what price they transact.
  2. Private property rights: In a free enterprise system, the property rights of the individual or business are guaranteed.
  3. Profit motive: The goal of a free market system is to allow individuals and businesses to maximize profits, eliminating inefficiencies in the economy.
  4. Owner control: Sometimes referred to as voluntary exchange, an owner of an asset or good has the right to choose whether or not to exchange that asset or good and not be forced into a trade. Likewise, consumers should not be forced to purchase something they don’t want to buy.

Is Free Enterprise the Same as Capitalism?

No, capitalism and free enterprise are not the same. Free enterprise is an economic system based upon a free and open market for anyone who wants to fill a demand.

Capitalists pursue profit. They do this by deploying privately owned capital assets, such as factories and mines, and employing labor to earn profits for themselves.

Free Enterprise vs Capitalism

Unlike free enterprise, capitalism can exist with controls and restrictions. For example, as far back as 1936, John Maynard Keynes argued that state intervention and capitalism can co-exist. In the extreme, capitalism can exist even when there are strict government controls, called state-guided capitalism, deciding which sectors of the economy are allowed to grow.

So, one could say that free enterprise allows for capitalism to exist, the opposite is not always true. Capitalism can and does thrive even without free enterprise or free markets.

Examples of Free Enterprise

Most countries have some form of free enterprise, but there are no economies that have a completely hands-off, free enterprise system.

A country may have restrictions to protect consumers, the environment, or domestic industries. The country also may control what can be freely imported into the country or what may be exported. Furthermore, it may also enact fiscal and monetary policies to control the pace of growth in the economy.

Therefore, most free enterprise economies have some level of government control. Generally speaking, there are three levels of free market economy:

  • Liberal Market Economy (“LME”): A liberal market economy aims to function with the least amount of government interference with respect to regulations, prices, and wages. Countries such as Singapore, Switzerland, and Hong Kong are considered some of the most liberal, although the United States is often cited as a classic LME.
  • Coordinated Market Economy (“CME”): While generally free enterprise economies, these countries also have formal institutions that regulate the market and coordinate the interaction between businesses and households, such as unions. Often cited examples of countries that are CMEs are Japan and Germany.
  • Mixed-Market Economy (“MME”): This economic system combines the elements of a free market economy with elements of a planned economy. While most MMEs have a free enterprise market system, the government regulates the market or owns key industries. Cuba and China are commonly considered MMEs and are sometimes known as a “command economy.”

Does the United States have a Free Enterprise System?

There is a belief that the United States is a free enterprise economy, but that isn’t true. While it might have been true in the past, the United States is better described as a hybrid nowadays. While most industries in the US are dominated by private enterprises, they have certain levels of government intervention, such as subsidies and tariffs, as well as environmental and financial regulations that stifle competition.

According to The Heritage Foundation 2023 Index of Economic Freedom, the US ranks 25th in the world, far below countries such as Singapore, Switzerland, Ireland, and Taiwan.

Free Enterprise - The Heritage Foundation 2023 Index of Economic Freedom

The US fares much better in the Fraser Institute’s 2022 Economic Freedom of the World report, where it comes in at number seven.

What are the Dangers of a Free Enterprise Economy?

While in theory, a completely free enterprise economy where the government is not involved in competitive markets sounds alluring, it is also not without potential problems.

Lack of economic incentives

Without government intervention, a free market economy will attempt to maximize profits above all else. Without economic incentives, certain economic activity might not happen.

For example, the recent COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that many countries did not have adequate drug manufacturing facilities domestically. As a result, governments have prioritized building these facilities within their borders to ensure supply for their citizens.

Misallocation of resources

In a true free enterprise system, there may be certain groups of consumers who may be underserved. For example, internet providers might not be willing to invest in infrastructure for remote parts of a country, where a small population might not warrant the expenditure.

Deficient regulation

Without government regulation, there might be an incentive for bad actors to cut corners or engage in dangerous behavior. The tainted milk powder scandal in China of 2008 is a prime example of how greed and lack of regulation endangered consumers.

Absence of government backstops

If governments were truly not allowed to interfere in a free enterprise system, they would also not be allowed to step in when there is a real systemic risk to the economy.

In 2009, when the European Sovereign Debt Crisis threatened to spiral out of control, other European nations and supranational organizations had to step in to bail them out. In a truly free enterprise system, this sort of government interference would not have happened, potentially causing a much larger crisis.

The Vitamin D Paradox: What They Don't Tell You About Cholecalciferol

An Essay

SEP 9 2025

Preface

Before We Begin



The same molecule in your morning vitamin D supplement is the active ingredient in rat poison.

Not a similar compound. Not a chemical cousin. The exact same molecule: cholecalciferol. At 0.075% concentration, it kills rats. In your supplement bottle, it's supposed to make you healthier.

This should be a simple story of dosage – but the more I investigated, the stranger it became. The vitamin D in supplements isn't extracted from fish or produced by sunlight. It's manufactured from sheep's wool using benzene and chloroform in Chinese chemical factories. The same factories that produce industrial solvents.

Meanwhile, studies show vitamin D supplements reduce multiple sclerosis progression by 34%. They lower cancer mortality. They help ICU patients recover faster. How does rat poison mixed with industrial chemicals improve health outcomes?

This essay is my attempt to reconcile what shouldn't be reconcilable. To understand how we arrived at a place where medicine and poison share the same molecule, the same manufacturer, the same mechanism of action – but somehow produce opposite results.

What you're about to read might challenge everything you believe about supplements, nutrition, and how we decide what's "healthy." That's the point. Sometimes the most important questions are the ones that make us uncomfortable.

Ready?

One more thing: this isn't meant to frighten you. If you're taking vitamin D and feeling better, I'm not saying you're poisoning yourself. The truth is more complex - some people probably benefit, others might be harmed, and many are likely wasting money on unnecessary supplements. The goal is to help you make informed decisions, not to create panic.

Some people do have genuine, severe deficiencies that need medical attention. This essay isn't about them – it's about the rest of us being told we're all deficient based on questionable tests and ever-shifting standards.

1. The Paradox That Shouldn't Exist

Here's a puzzle that keeps me awake at night: Multiple studies claim vitamin D supplementation produces measurable health benefits. A 2025 trial in France reported that high-dose vitamin D reduced multiple sclerosis progression by 34%. A meta-analysis found 15% lower cancer mortality. ICU patients allegedly had better survival rates. These studies exist, complete with control groups and statistical analyses, circulating through the medical establishment's usual channels.

Same substance, different context: Rampage rat poison. Active ingredient: 0.075% cholecalciferol. That's vitamin D3. Not mixed with vitamin D3, not containing vitamin D3 as one of many ingredients. The only active ingredient that kills rats is the exact same molecule we're told to supplement for our health. The remaining 99.925%? Seeds and grain – rat food. The vitamin D is what makes it lethal.

Something doesn't add up here.

Now, I don't trust the medical publishing complex. After watching them gatekeep dissenting voices, rubber-stamp fraudulent studies during the pandemic, and memory-hole inconvenient data, I know they're captured by industrial medicine. But here's what makes this paradox interesting: even if these vitamin D studies are manipulated, even if the benefits are manufactured, even if the whole thing is pharmaceutical propaganda – we still have the other side of the equation. The rat poison. The safety data sheets. The "fatal if swallowed" warnings from the actual manufacturers.

Either we're witnessing one of the most successful examples of "the dose makes the poison" in human history, or we're missing something fundamental about what's actually happening when people swallow these supplements. Because when Merck's own safety documents classify their pharmaceutical-grade vitamin D3 as "Category 1 and 2 hazardous," I pay attention. Not because I trust Merck – but because liability lawyers make them document actual hazards.

This isn't a simple story of Big Pharma deception or natural health enlightenment. It's messier than that. More confusing. And I'm trying to figure out how both realities can exist simultaneously.

2. The Case Against - When the Evidence is Undeniable

Let me start with what Agent131711 gets absolutely right, because some of this evidence is impossible to dismiss.

The safety data sheets are damning. Not from some blogger's interpretation, but from Merck and Spectrum's own legal documentation for pharmaceutical-grade vitamin D3. "Fatal if swallowed." "Category 1 and 2 hazardous substance." "Not for use as food or drug." These aren't typos. These are legally required hazard classifications that companies must provide to protect themselves from liability. The same cholecalciferol molecule sold in your local pharmacy carries skull-and-crossbones pictograms in its industrial documentation.

Then there's the mechanism of death – identical in rats and humans. Cholecalciferol kills through hypercalcemia: calcium floods the bloodstream, calcifies soft tissues, damages kidneys, causes heart failure. When rats eat those poison pellets, this is how they die. When humans overdose on vitamin D, this is exactly what happens to them. Same molecule, same biological pathway, same organ damage. The only difference is the dose and the timeline.

Here's a paradox within the paradox: vitamin D supposedly helps us absorb calcium for strong bones, yet it kills through calcium overload. We're told the poison's mechanism of death is somehow also its mechanism of healing. How can flooding the body with calcium simultaneously strengthen bones and destroy organs? It's like claiming drowning prevents dehydration.

The mechanism gets worse when you understand the magnesium connection. Excess vitamin D doesn't just flood your body with calcium -- it actively depletes magnesium in the process. The hormone form of D signals your intestines to preferentially absorb calcium over magnesium. Your kidneys need magnesium to dump the excess calcium, but the very substance causing the calcium overload is simultaneously blocking your ability to get the magnesium needed to fix it.

It's a biochemical trap: the more vitamin D you take to "fix" your deficiency, the more you deplete the magnesium that would protect you from its toxicity. Magnesium is anti-inflammatory; calcium is inflammatory. We're systematically tilting everyone's mineral balance toward inflammation while calling it preventive healthcare. Some practitioners have observed this and recommend topical magnesium to bypass the compromised intestinal absorption -- essentially admitting that oral vitamin D supplementation breaks normal mineral metabolism so badly that you need to absorb minerals through your skin to compensate.

The manufacturing process should give anyone pause. This isn't sunshine captured in a bottle. It's sheep's wool grease (lanolin) irradiated with UV light, then extracted using chloroform – a known carcinogen that the safety sheets warn "may damage the unborn child." Industrial chemistry masquerading as a vitamin. Whatever your body produces when sunlight hits your skin, this isn't it.

The conflation of all forms of vitamin D also deserves scrutiny. The cholecalciferol your skin produces from sunlight, the vitamin D2 from mushrooms, the synthetic D3 from supplements – Agent131711 treats them as interchangeable villains. But even Agent131711 admits being unable to find natural vitamin D isolated under a microscope, only synthetic versions. This suggests we might be dealing with different substances entirely, despite similar names.

Still, those rat poison labels don't lie. Quintox: 0.075% vitamin D3, 99.925% seeds. Agrid3: same ratio. TeraD3 BLOX: marketed as the only EPA-approved organic rodenticide, killing through vitamin D toxicity. These aren't obscure products – they're commercially available, professionally manufactured, and they work by exploiting vitamin D's toxicity at tiny concentrations.

The question isn't whether vitamin D3 can be toxic. It clearly can. The question is whether taking it at supplement doses is slowly building toward that same toxicity, just stretched over decades instead of days.

Where Agent131711's argument becomes more debatable is the dismissal of dose-response. "Poison is poison," they say, but this oversimplifies how biology works. The difference between rat poison concentration (0.075%) and typical supplement doses is often 1000-fold or more. Pharmacology exists as a discipline because dose-response relationships are real and measurable.

It's worth noting that vitamin D toxicity from supplementation at recommended doses is genuinely rare. The Endocrine Society reports that toxicity typically requires doses above 10,000 IU daily for months. Millions supplement daily without acute poisoning. The question isn't whether massive overdoses are dangerous - they clearly are. The question is whether decades of daily supplementation at "normal" doses leads to subtle, cumulative harm that we're not adequately tracking.

The half-life of 25-hydroxyvitamin D is only 15-30 days, and our bodies do have mechanisms to break down excess. But this doesn't tell the whole story. Tissue calcification and cellular disruption may occur through different mechanisms than simple blood level accumulation. We need to distinguish between acute toxicity (rare) and potential long-term effects (unstudied).

3. The Manufacturing Horror

Before we examine the studies claiming benefits, we need to understand what exactly people are swallowing. The manufacturing process of vitamin D3 isn't just industrial -- it's a chemical nightmare that would horrify anyone who saw it.

The manufacturing process reveals the truth more starkly than any academic paper could. Agent131711 traced the journey from slaughterhouse to supplement bottle, and it reads like a horror story dressed up as science.

It starts with sheep destined for slaughter. Their wool, coated in lanolin (sebaceous gland secretions), gets washed with industrial detergents. The extracted lanolin then undergoes a "dehydrobromination reaction" using either 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (derived from coal tar) or a cocktail of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, N-Bromosuccinimide, and chloroform. Yes, chloroform -- the same substance used to knock people unconscious in old movies, now being used to create your "essential nutrient."

The mixture gets heated to 248°F, creating what the patent documents charmingly call a "soup" -- melted lanolin swimming in industrial chemicals. To speed dissolution, they add methanol and benzene. Benzene, for context, is what causes leukemia in factory workers. It's so toxic that OSHA strictly regulates workplace exposure, yet it's a standard ingredient in vitamin D production.

Next comes "purification" through a Diels-Alder cycloaddition, followed by irradiation in what's essentially an industrial X-ray machine. The base for this irradiation can be aluminum oxide (linked to Alzheimer's) mixed with more benzene. The irradiation supposedly "activates" the vitamin -- though what it's really doing is bombarding sheep grease with radiation after it's been dissolved in carcinogens.

The process continues: separation, filtration, heating until only crystals remain, then pulverizing into powder. These crystals, born from wool wax and baptized in benzene, dried and crushed into dust, are what we're told is identical to what our skin produces in sunshine. The same substance that, when mixed with flour and sugar, becomes D-Con rat poison. When cut with soy oil, becomes your doctor-recommended supplement.

The factories producing this are primarily in China and India, where environmental regulations are suggestions rather than rules. The powder ships worldwide in industrial drums, the same shipping infrastructure that moves industrial chemicals, because that's what this is -- an industrial chemical with a marketing department.

Now, defenders of supplementation will argue that many life-saving medications use similar industrial processes. Insulin involves genetically modified E. coli. Antibiotics require complex fermentation. Even "natural" supplements undergo extensive processing. They'll say the manufacturing process is a red herring – what matters is the final molecule, not how it's made.

This would be a fair point if we were talking about acute, life-saving medications given to sick people under medical supervision. But we're not. We're talking about something added to the milk supply, mandated in infant formula, recommended for daily consumption by healthy people for their entire lives. The standards should be different. When you're mass-medicating entire populations, the origin and purity matter enormously.

Moreover, the manufacturing process reveals something crucial: this isn't a nutrient we're extracting from food. It's an industrial chemical we're creating through industrial processes, then retroactively calling it identical to what our bodies produce. Would we accept this logic for other hormones? If we synthesized testosterone from coal tar and chloroform, would we add it to the milk supply and call it essential nutrition?

This is what we're being told to give our infants. This is what's mandated in milk. This is what your doctor measures in your blood and declares you deficient without. Not sunshine captured in a bottle, but sheep's wool dissolved in chloroform, irradiated like nuclear waste, crystallized through benzene, and packaged as health.

4. The Case For - When Studies Show Benefits

Now for the other side of this maddening equation – the studies claiming benefits. Even if we're skeptical of medical journals, even if we know they're captured by pharmaceutical interests, we still need to grapple with what these trials report.

The multiple sclerosis trial from France followed 303 patients for two years. Half received 100,000 IU of cholecalciferol every two weeks – a massive dose by any standard. The primary outcome (relapses plus MRI lesions) occurred in 60.3% of the vitamin D group versus 74.1% of placebo. That's not a subtle difference. That's a third fewer people experiencing disease progression. How does rat poison slow MS?

The cancer mortality data is equally puzzling. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found approximately 15% lower cancer mortality with vitamin D supplementation. Not cancer incidence – people still got cancer at the same rates – but fewer died from it. The reduction was consistent across different types of cancer. If cholecalciferol is purely toxic, why would poisoning people slightly improve their survival from an entirely different disease process?

In intensive care units, a meta-analysis of 16 trials involving 2,449 critically ill patients showed a mortality risk ratio of 0.78 with vitamin D supplementation. Shorter ICU stays, less time on ventilators. These are people whose bodies are already under extreme stress, yet adding a known toxin apparently helps them recover faster.

The COPD findings add another wrinkle. Benefits appeared only in patients with severe deficiency – baseline levels below 25 nmol/L. No benefit for anyone else. This suggests something more complex than simple supplementation. Perhaps in states of severe deficiency, the body's response to even a toxic form of the compound triggers beneficial adaptations?

Then there's the prediabetes data. Individual trials showed borderline or no effect, but pooled analysis across eight trials found an 11% reduction in progression to diabetes. Modest, but measurable. More interesting: the effect was stronger in non-obese participants. Why would body composition affect how a poison influences blood sugar regulation?

These aren't all industry-funded shams. Some are investigator-initiated trials, some are from countries with nationalized healthcare systems that have no incentive to promote unnecessary supplements. The geographic spread – France, various meta-analyses pulling from global data – makes coordinated fraud less likely.

But here's what bothers me: the benefits cluster around specific conditions and deficiency states. We don't see across-the-board improvements in general health. We see targeted effects – MS progression, cancer mortality, ICU outcomes in the severely ill. It's almost as if the body, when pushed to extremes by disease or deficiency, can utilize even a toxic substance in beneficial ways.

Or maybe we're measuring the wrong thing entirely. What if these improvements aren't from vitamin D itself but from what the body does in response to chronic, low-level poisoning? The hormesis hypothesis again – could these benefits be the body's adaptive response to a toxin rather than the direct effect of a nutrient?

The fact remains: people taking rat poison in measured doses show measurable improvements in specific health outcomes. That's not a sentence that should make sense, yet here we are, staring at the data.

These benefits aren't entirely mysterious. Vitamin D - or more accurately, the hormone it converts to - does have biological effects beyond calcium absorption. It appears to modulate immune function and affect cell differentiation. The MS benefits could come from immune suppression. The cancer mortality reduction might relate to effects on cell proliferation. The ICU benefits could stem from anti-inflammatory properties.

But here's what should give us pause: we're seeing benefits primarily in disease states, not general health improvement. It's acting more like a pharmaceutical intervention than a nutritional supplement. The question isn't whether synthetic cholecalciferol has biological effects - it clearly does. The question is whether we should be taking a substance that functions like a steroid hormone on a daily basis, especially when its "benefits" mainly appear when the body is already in crisis.

5. The Shaky Foundation

Perhaps the answer to our paradox lies not in what vitamin D does, but in what it actually is. The origin stories of both vitamin D and vitamin A read like scientific fairy tales when you examine them closely.

Agent131711 spent hours trying to find a simple photograph of natural, isolated vitamin D under a microscope. Not synthetic D3, not a computer rendering, but actual vitamin D extracted from fish or mushrooms or human blood. It doesn't exist. Every image, every molecular structure diagram, every "photograph" – they're all of synthetic cholecalciferol. The natural compound we supposedly need for survival has never been properly isolated and photographed in its natural state.

The discovery story itself is suspect. In the 1920s, researchers were trying to understand rickets. They knew sunlight prevented it, and certain foods seemed to help. But here's where it gets murky: they "isolated" vitamin D by irradiating ergosterol (from yeast) with UV light. Think about that. They didn't extract vitamin D from a natural source – they created something by bombarding yeast derivatives with radiation and called it a vitamin. That's like shooting electricity through nitrogen gas, creating nitrogen dioxide, and declaring you've discovered the essential nutrient in air.

Grant Genereux's investigation into vitamin A reveals an even more damning pattern. The researchers who "proved" vitamin A was essential were using heated casein in their supposedly vitamin-A-free diets. Except casein contains vitamin A, and heating it converts it to retinoic acid – the most toxic form. They thought they were proving deficiency; they were actually documenting toxicity. Their "vitamin-free" diet was a high-dose poison diet. Yet this became the foundation for declaring vitamin A essential.

The pattern repeats: industrial processes creating industrial compounds, then retroactively declaring them identical to what exists in nature. It's the supplementation tail wagging the nutritional dog. We didn't discover vitamins and then learn to synthesize them – we created compounds through industrial processes and then went looking for justifications to call them essential.

Consider the testing itself. When you get your vitamin D levels checked, they're not looking for some natural compound your body produces or extracts from food. They're testing for the presence of synthetic markers – specifically, they're measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D, which is what your liver creates from cholecalciferol. But if you're supplementing, you're not measuring natural vitamin D status; you're measuring how much synthetic compound has accumulated in your system.

Here's the real kicker: the entire "deficiency epidemic" might be a testing artifact. The blood test measures synthetic markers – 25-hydroxyvitamin D – which is what your liver makes from supplements. How would we even know if someone has sufficient natural vitamin D when the test is designed to detect industrial chemicals? We've created a test that guarantees everyone appears deficient unless they're taking the product being sold.

The whole edifice starts to look like an industrial construct. Chemical companies needed markets for their byproducts. Sheep's wool processing created lanolin waste. Instead of disposal costs, they irradiate it, extract with chloroform, and sell it as a health product. The "science" followed the industrial opportunity, not the other way around.

This might explain why traditional populations thrived without supplementation. The Inuit, living in darkness for months, eating a diet of seal and whale – no rickets, no vitamin D deficiency. Traditional cultures worldwide, no access to supplements, no fortified foods, yet no epidemic of bone diseases. It's only when industrial food systems take over that suddenly everyone becomes "deficient" in compounds that require industrial processes to produce.

The timeline tells its own story. Mass fortification of milk with vitamin D began in the 1930s. By the 1950s, osteoporosis emerged as a major health concern. Autoimmune diseases exploded from rare curiosities to commonplace diagnoses through the same decades. Agent131711 documented this correlation, but mainstream medicine refuses to connect these dots. We added rat poison to the food supply, and somehow we're surprised that people got sicker.

Now, critics will rightly point out that correlation isn't causation. The rise in osteoporosis could be explained by numerous factors: the fortification generation reaching old age when bone problems manifest, better diagnostic tools detecting what always existed, longer lifespans revealing age-related conditions, the shift from physical labor to sedentary office work. All valid points.

But here's what's suspicious: we were told fortification would prevent bone disease. Instead, we got an epidemic of bone disease in the first generation raised on fortified foods. Maybe it's coincidence. Maybe it's the hundred other environmental toxins introduced in the same era. Or maybe – just maybe – flooding everyone's system with a fat-soluble synthetic hormone that affects calcium metabolism had unintended consequences that took decades to manifest. The fact that we can't definitively prove causation doesn't mean we should ignore the correlation, especially when the mechanism of toxicity (calcium dysregulation) perfectly matches the disease we're seeing (bones losing calcium).

To be fair, vitamin D fortification seems to have solved a real problem. Rickets was endemic in industrial cities before fortification programs. Children in Victorian London developed severe bone deformities. Women in purdah suffered from osteomalacia. The apparent success of fortification in eliminating rickets seems to have saved children from disability.

But here's the nuance we're missing: these populations developed problems when they moved away from traditional lifestyles. Industrial work kept people indoors. Smog blocked sunlight. Traditional foods were replaced with processed alternatives. Instead of addressing these root causes - the industrial conditions creating the deficiency - we applied an industrial solution. It worked for acute deficiency diseases. Whether it's optimal for long-term health is a different question entirely.

Even more insidious: most livestock now receive vitamin D supplements in their feed. That "natural" egg, that grass-fed beef, that organic milk – they're all contaminated with synthetic D3 from supplemented animals. We're being dosed even when we try to eat clean. There's no control group left in this experiment.

What if we've been asking the wrong question all along? Instead of "How much vitamin D do we need?" perhaps we should ask "Why do industrial societies create conditions that supposedly require industrial chemicals to fix?"

The very concept of isolating single compounds and declaring them essential might be the flaw. Traditional foods don't deliver isolated chemicals – they provide complex matrices of compounds that work synergistically. A piece of salmon isn't just "vitamin D" – it's thousands of compounds working together. The reductionist approach of supplementation assumes we can improve on this with sheep grease and chloroform.

6. The Third Perspective - What If We're Asking the Wrong Question?

Dr. Paul Mason offers a perspective that might resolve our paradox by reframing it entirely. What if vitamin D isn't a nutrient at all, but a marker of something else?

His observation is elegantly simple: your body produces vitamin D as sunscreen. The same UV-B rays that trigger vitamin D synthesis also damage DNA. The vitamin D production isn't the goal – it's the protective response. Even simple phytoplankton produce vitamin D when exposed to UV radiation – not for bones (they don't have bones), but as protection from radiation damage. We've mistaken the bandage for the medicine.

This explains something that never made sense: why would humans fundamentally require sun exposure for an essential nutrient when entire populations thrived in regions with minimal sunlight? The Inuit lived in near-permanent darkness. Northern Europeans spent winters in deep forest shadows. These populations didn't develop mass deficiency diseases until industrial foods replaced their traditional diets. Perhaps because the "deficiency" is actually something else entirely.

Mason's data about cholesterol is particularly intriguing. People with more sun exposure have lower cholesterol levels. Not because vitamin D is improving their health, but because vitamin D synthesis consumes cholesterol. Your body literally burns through cholesterol to create this protective compound. High vitamin D levels might simply indicate that someone's body is successfully defending against UV damage, which correlates with being outdoors, active, and generally healthier.

Then there's the seed oil connection. Mason notes that people eliminating seed oils report dramatic improvements in sun tolerance. No more burning, even with extended exposure. The theory: plant sterols from industrial seed oils interfere with vitamin D synthesis in the skin. If your body can't produce its natural sunscreen, you burn. This isn't about vitamin D deficiency – it's about industrial foods disrupting our natural protective mechanisms.

This reframing explains the winter blues better than deficiency theory. If vitamin D is just sunscreen, not a mood nutrient, why do people feel worse in winter? Light therapy works without producing vitamin D – it's about light exposure, not the chemical. Seasonal depression might be about lack of sunlight on our retinas and skin, lack of outdoor movement, not lack of a sheep-wool extract. We've confused the marker for the cause.

The metabolic health marker hypothesis makes more sense than the nutrient theory. Vitamin D is fat-soluble, stored in fat tissue. Obese individuals show lower circulating levels not because they need more supplements, but because their fat cells are sequestering it. The correlation between low vitamin D and poor health outcomes might be entirely backwards – it's not that low D causes disease, but that metabolic dysfunction causes both disease and altered vitamin D metabolism.

This would explain why supplementation studies show such mixed results. You're not fixing a deficiency; you're artificially elevating a marker. It's like taking aspirin to lower a fever caused by infection – the number on the thermometer goes down, but the underlying problem remains. Sometimes that might help (the hormesis effect of mild poisoning triggering beneficial adaptations), sometimes it might hurt (accumulating synthetic compounds that interfere with natural processes), and sometimes it might do nothing at all.

Consider the profound implications: we've identified a protective response to environmental damage, synthesized it in a lab using industrial processes, and convinced ourselves that swallowing it will replicate the benefits of outdoor activity, whole foods, and metabolic health. It's the supplementation mindset taken to its logical absurdity – trying to bottle sunshine, but ending up with sheep grease processed with chloroform.

Mason's perspective also explains why traditional diets work without supplementation. Animal fats from pasture-raised animals contain natural vitamin D complexes integrated into the fat matrix. This isn't isolated cholecalciferol – it's a complete package of fat-soluble compounds working in concert. The Inuit weren't deficient because seal blubber provided everything they needed, in the form their bodies expected.

What if the entire paradigm is backwards? Instead of asking "How can we supplement our way to health?" we should ask "What about modern life creates these apparent deficiencies?" The answer might be that industrial foods, indoor living, and metabolic dysfunction create a state where our bodies can't properly produce or utilize natural protective compounds. Then we try to fix it with industrial versions of those same compounds, created through processes that would horrify anyone who saw them.

There's another industrial chemical that may be driving this supposed deficiency epidemic: glyphosate. Jennifer Depew and other researchers have identified that glyphosate, the world's most widely used herbicide, inhibits CYP enzymes -- the very enzymes we need to synthesize vitamin D from sunlight and cholesterol. Think about the elegant circularity of this: we spray our food with chemicals that prevent our bodies from making vitamin D naturally, then declare everyone deficient and sell them synthetic replacements made from sheep's wool and chloroform.

This isn't just speculation. Glyphosate is now ubiquitous in the food supply, showing up in everything from breakfast cereals to organic wines. The timeline aligns perfectly: glyphosate use exploded in the 1990s with GMO crops, and suddenly everyone became vitamin D deficient. We broke the natural synthesis pathway with one industrial chemical, then "fixed" it with another.

It's the agricultural equivalent of breaking your legs and selling you crutches. Except the crutches are made of rat poison.

7. The Warfarin Parallel

Critics of this essay might point out that warfarin is also rat poison, yet it saves lives as a blood thinner. Iron supplements can kill in overdose but prevent anemia. Perhaps vitamin D belongs in this category - substances that are both poison and medicine depending on context.

This is a fair point. Medicine is full of such paradoxes. The difference with vitamin D is the scale of exposure. Warfarin is prescribed to specific patients with careful monitoring. Iron is given to those with documented deficiency. But vitamin D is added to the milk supply, fortified in foods, recommended universally, with ever-increasing "optimal" levels. We're not treating sick people; we're mass-medicating entire populations based on a test that might be measuring the wrong thing.

8. Reconciling the Irreconcilable

So here I sit, staring at this paradox. Rat poison that reduces cancer mortality. A hazardous industrial chemical that prevents MS relapses. A compound that kills through calcium toxicity, yet somehow helps ICU patients survive. How do we make sense of this?

Maybe the answer is that we're dealing with multiple truths simultaneously.

Truth one: Synthetic cholecalciferol is unquestionably toxic. The safety sheets don't lie, the rat poison works, and the mechanism of toxicity is identical in all mammals. Taking any substance that bioaccumulates and causes hypercalcemia is inherently risky. Agent131711 is right about this.

Truth two: Many people supplementing with vitamin D experience measurable benefits in specific conditions. The studies exist, the effects are sometimes substantial, and even accounting for publication bias and pharmaceutical influence, something is happening. The medical establishment isn't wrong about everything.

Truth three: What our bodies produce in response to sunlight and what comes in a bottle are not the same thing, despite sharing a name. One is part of a complex biological response to environmental stress. The other is sheep grease processed with industrial chemicals. We've conflated them because they share certain molecular similarities, but that's like saying carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are interchangeable because they both contain carbon.

The hormesis hypothesis might bridge these truths. Perhaps synthetic vitamin D acts as a controlled poison that triggers beneficial stress responses in certain disease states. Cancer cells might be more vulnerable to calcium disruption than healthy cells. MS inflammation might be dampened by the immune suppression that comes from mild, chronic poisoning. ICU patients might benefit from the anti-inflammatory effects of what is, essentially, a steroid hormone.

But this raises an uncomfortable question: if the benefits come from controlled poisoning, shouldn't we be looking for safer ways to trigger the same responses? Exercise is hormetic stress without the bioaccumulation. Fasting triggers cellular repair without permanent calcium deposits. Even controlled sun exposure provides the stress response without the chloroform extraction.

Grant Genereux's vitamin A research suggests another possibility: we're seeing benefits because we're accidentally treating a different toxicity. If modern diets are overloaded with synthetic vitamins, perhaps vitamin D supplementation interferes with vitamin A absorption or metabolism. The "benefit" might be reducing the impact of a different poison. It's like taking one drug to counteract the side effects of another – sometimes it works, but you're not addressing the root problem.

The most disturbing possibility is that we're watching a massive experiment in real-time, and we won't know the true results for decades. Fat-soluble compounds that bioaccumulate don't show their full effects immediately. The generation raised on fortified foods and daily supplements hasn't reached old age yet. When Agent131711 points out the parallel rise in osteoporosis despite decades of vitamin D fortification, are we seeing the early signs of a failed experiment?

I don't have clean answers. What I have is deep skepticism about any simple narrative – whether it's "vitamin D is essential" or "vitamin D is pure poison." The truth seems messier: an industrial chemical that can trigger beneficial responses in specific circumstances while potentially causing long-term harm through accumulation. A marker we've mistaken for a medicine. A band-aid we've convinced ourselves is nutrition.

What I'm certain of is this: no traditional culture ever needed to extract cholecalciferol from sheep's wool using chloroform to be healthy. Whatever our ancestors did to maintain strong bones and immune systems, it wasn't this. Maybe instead of asking "How much synthetic D3 should I take?" we should be asking "What were they doing that we're not?"

I'm throwing this out to you, the readers, because I believe in crowd-sourced wisdom. If you've had experiences with vitamin D – positive or negative – I want to hear them. If you've found research that reconciles this paradox, share it. If you think I'm missing something crucial, tell me.

Because either we're mass-medicating with rat poison and occasionally getting lucky with hormetic effects, or there's something fundamental about human biochemistry that nobody fully understands yet. Neither option is particularly comforting.

The one thing I'm sure of? The conventional narrative – that synthetic vitamin D is an unqualified good that most people need more of – is definitely wrong. The full truth is more complex, more disturbing, and more uncertain than any of us would like to admit.

9. The Perfect Business Model

Step back and look at the architecture of this system. It's breathtaking in its completeness.

First, create the problem: Develop a test that measures synthetic markers, then declare anyone below arbitrary thresholds "deficient." The test doesn't measure natural vitamin D status – it can't, because we've never properly isolated natural vitamin D. It measures whether you're taking supplements. Circular logic perfected.

Second, ensure no escape: Fortify the milk supply. Add it to breakfast cereals. Mandate it in infant formula. Supplement the livestock feed so even "natural" foods are contaminated. Make it impossible to avoid the experiment. There's no control group when everyone's being dosed.

Third, expand the market: Keep raising the "optimal" levels. What was considered adequate in 1990 is now severely deficient. The reference ranges creep higher, capturing more people in the deficiency net. Pregnant women need more. Children need more. The elderly need more. Everyone needs more.

Now they're even engineering nanoemulsions to enhance bioavailability - essentially admitting that the synthetic compound is so poorly absorbed that it needs to be wrapped in nanotechnology to work. We've gone from claiming this is an essential nutrient to needing particle physics to deliver it effectively. A 2025 study touted vitamin D3-loaded nanoemulsion as superior for autistic children. Think about that: we need cutting-edge drug delivery systems to make a supposedly essential nutrient work. When did our ancestors need nanotechnology to absorb sunshine?

Fourth, multiply the revenue streams: Test manufacturers sell the diagnostics. Supplement companies sell the cure. When bioaccumulation causes problems – osteoporosis, kidney stones, cardiovascular calcification – pharmaceutical companies sell those treatments too. It's vertical integration that would make Rockefeller proud.

The synergy with agricultural chemicals is particularly elegant. Glyphosate manufacturers profit from herbicide sales while simultaneously creating vitamin D deficiency by inhibiting the CYP enzymes needed for natural synthesis. This manufactured deficiency drives supplement sales. The supplements deplete magnesium, driving sales of magnesium products and treatments for magnesium deficiency symptoms. Each "solution" creates new problems requiring new products. It's not a conspiracy -- it's just capitalism optimizing for profit across multiple industries that happen to feed each other's growth.

Fifth, capture the critics: Anyone questioning this system is "anti-science" or wants children to develop rickets. Create nonprofit organizations to promote awareness. Fund studies that ask "how much?" never "should we?" Make supplementation synonymous with responsible health behavior.

The genius is that each component reinforces the others. The tests create demand for supplements. The supplements validate the tests. The fortification ensures baseline exposure. The side effects create new markets. The whole system becomes self-sustaining, generating its own evidence for its necessity.

Consider the numbers: The global vitamin D testing market exceeds $2 billion annually. The supplement market is over $1.5 billion. Osteoporosis drugs: $12 billion. Kidney disease treatment: $95 billion. We're not talking about health; we're talking about GDP-scale wealth transfer.

But here's the darkest part: even if you see through it, you can't entirely escape it. Your food is fortified. Your meat comes from supplemented animals. Your doctor will test your levels and recommend supplements. Your insurance might even penalize you for "non-compliance" with preventive care guidelines. You're trapped in a system where refusing to take rat poison is considered irresponsible.

They've monetized the sun itself. Convinced us that what our bodies produce naturally in response to sunlight is insufficient, that we need their industrial version instead. It's the enclosure of the commons extended to human biochemistry. They've privatized vitamin D.

The question isn't whether this is intentional conspiracy or emergent market behavior. The question is: how do we escape a system that profits from making us sick while claiming to keep us healthy? When the test creates the disease, the cure causes new problems, and the whole cycle generates wealth for the same entities that created it, what do we call this?

I call it the perfect business model. Perpetual customers who can never be cured, only managed. A subscription service for survival. Rat poison rebranded as preventive medicine.

And we're all enrolled, whether we signed up or not.

Conclusion

Where Do We Go From Here?

After everything you've just read, you might be wondering: "So what do I actually do?"

I can't answer that for you. But I can tell you what questions I'm now asking myself:

Why did my grandparents have strong bones without supplements? What were they doing that I'm not? They got morning sunlight. They ate whole foods. They didn't consume glyphosate-soaked grains or seed oils. They moved their bodies. Simple things, but maybe that's the point.

The real lesson here isn't just about vitamin D. It's about how we think about health.

We've been trained to believe that every problem has a pill-shaped solution. That we can isolate single molecules from complex systems and improve on nature. That if something is sold in a pharmacy, it must be safe. That if a test says we're deficient, we must supplement.

But what if the tests are measuring the wrong things? What if the "deficiencies" are manufactured to sell solutions? What if the solutions create new problems that need more solutions?

This isn't conspiracy thinking. It's pattern recognition.

Here's what I've learned: When someone profits from both defining the problem and selling the solution, scrutinize everything. When an industry tells you to ignore what your ancestors did for millennia and buy their product instead, ask why. When the "cure" requires increasingly complex technology to work – from fortification to supplements to nanoemulsions – maybe the cure isn't working.

I'm not suggesting everyone stop taking vitamin D tomorrow. For some people - those with MS, severe deficiency, specific conditions - supplementation might be genuinely helpful. The studies showing benefits aren't all fraudulent, and dismissing them entirely would be as foolish as accepting them uncritically.

What I'm suggesting is that we stop treating supplementation as universally beneficial and risk-free. That we question whether mass fortification makes sense. That we investigate why traditional solutions (sunlight, whole foods, addressing root causes) have been replaced with industrial chemicals. That we demand better research on long-term effects, not just acute toxicity.Reconciling

Your health is your responsibility. Not your doctor's, not the FDA's, not the supplement industry's. Yours.

That means asking uncomfortable questions. Reading boring safety sheets. Following the money. Trusting your experience over marketing claims. And sometimes, it means admitting we don't have all the answers.

I don't know if synthetic vitamin D helps some people through hormesis. I don't know if the benefits in those studies are real or statistical manipulation. I don't know if we're in the middle of a massive public health experiment that won't reveal its true cost for decades.

But I do know this: No traditional culture needed sheep's wool dissolved in chloroform and irradiated to be healthy.

Maybe it's time we asked why we think we do.
