I have been a LEF subscriber for about 20 years
I first learned of the benefits of Vitamin D thru LEF
During 2015 the magazine probably averaged 3 articles/mentions of vitamin D each month
I buy my vitamin D test via LEF - they have a very low price - but have to go to a lab for the blood draw
I buy LEF Super K to get a variety of vitamin K types
