Vitamin D – The Cost To The NHS of Epidemic Deficiency And The Overwhelming Case For Supplementation.
From Cancer Research UK
The Government’s view
Professor Mike Richards, National Cancer Director, kicked off the session. He acknowledged that the UK spends less on healthcare as a whole than many other European countries. On top of this, we spend proportionally less on cancer care than many of our EU counterparts.
According to the latest figures, around 5 per cent of the NHS spend is on cancer, equating to around £76 per head each year in England ….
Clearly there is a need to increase spend in the NHS on cancer – particularly when the demographics and new advances in cancer drugs are taken into account. As the population ages, cancer is getting more common – Professor Richards commented that the incidence of the disease is increasing at a rate of around 1.5 per cent each year. This means there will inevitably be more people needing cancer care services.
And with great strides in cancer research, many new drugs and diagnostic tests are coming through – offering new hope to people touched by cancer – but at a price. On top of this, the NHS needs to consider the increasing cost of follow up care for cancer survivors (’survivorship care’) – as more and more people survive cancer.
So cancer care costs are certain to increase in the future, and these will need to be met through boosting spending and efficiency in the NHS.
Compare the £76 per head spent on Cancer alone by the NHS to the cost of effective supplementation with Vitamin D3 – approximately £10 per head, per annum.
Now factor in Diabetes:
The NHS is spending £1m an hour, 10% of its yearly budget, treating diabetes and its complications, according to a new report.
Despite advances in detection and treatment, incidence of the disease – which causes heart attacks, stokes and blindness – is spiralling.
GPs are still missing telltale symptoms which mean the disease may remain undetected for many years until irreversible damage has been done, said campaigning charity Diabetes UK.
Some 2.3million people in the UK are already diagnosed but the charity estimated the number of diagnosed and “hidden” diabetics will top 4million by 2025.
The report also revealed one in 10 people in hospital in the UK have diabetes and 60% of inpatients with diabetes have been admitted as emergencies. The total cost to the NHS equates to £9bn-a-year.

This is another £140 per head of the UK population on diabetes …
Now factor in heart disease .. allergies .. influenza treatment and deaths …. parkinsons .. multiple sclerosis …
How about depression? – another £140 per head UK population per annum. from the estimated cost in 2000:
The total cost of adult depression was estimated at over £9 billion
Source: Imperial College
So we can spend £10 per year on D3 supplements per head of the UK population and reduce NHS spending by say 75% of these amounts (conservatively) – meaning a saving of £271 per head per annum on Cancer, Diabetes and Depression alone. Cancer, diabetes and depression and Schizophrenia are pretty much unknown at the equator.
This amounts to a saving to the NHS potentially of £17.6 billion per annum at a cost of around £650 million for appropriate D3 supplementation and testing …. that’s quite a sum.
Are you getting the picture as to why the Pharma industry is deliberately overplaying the dangers of Vitamin D supplementation?
They can’t patent Vitamin D and they stand to stand to lose an awful lot of money if people are healthy.
Listen to this postGoogle, Galileo, History and Power.
Google celebrate the 400th anniversary of Galileo's telescope.
Google is celebrating the 400th anniversary of Galileo Galilei’s telescope today. Poor Galileo was not well treated in his day for sticking to the same observation the Flaming Lips make in their song, “Do you realise”, namely that, “the Sun does not rise, it’s just an illusion caused by the world turning round”. From Wikipedia:
Galileo’s championing of Copernicanism was controversial within his lifetime, when a large majority of philosophers and astronomers still subscribed (at least outwardly) to the geocentric view that the Earth is at the centre of the universe. After 1610, when he began supporting heliocentrism publicly, he met with bitter opposition from some philosophers and clerics, and two of the latter eventually denounced him to the Roman Inquisition early in 1615. Although he was cleared of any offence at that time, the Catholic Church nevertheless condemned heliocentrism as “false and contrary to Scripture” in February 1616,[8] and Galileo was warned to abandon his support for it—which he promised to do. When he later defended his views in his most famous work, Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, published in 1632, he was tried by the Inquisition, found “vehemently suspect of heresy,” forced to recant, and spent the rest of his life under house arrest.
Google today is one of the champions of freedom of information – except when censoring websites for the Chinese and other Governments. The pioneering search techniques, personal publishing and communications tools – and other innovations the internet giant has brought to us, are part of the most sweeping political change to occur in two thousand years or so.
The invention of large scale officialdom and the official world-view it presents as a coherent and self evident set of truths ushered in a period of small scale human acquiescence and large scale dominace through power that persists as the fundamental underlying fabric of our society today.
The Internet puts that entire web, fabricated from truths, half truths, downright lies and outdated beliefs at risk of crumbling. In fact it is crumbling. As individuals stop looking to their televisions and governments to tell them what is the nature of reality and begin on a large scale to discern and sift that information for themselves the established political process is becoming irrelevant.
This was foreseen as clear as day by some leaders of the American right – and seen as the danger to their established order it represents. Unable to declare open “information warfare” on their own citizens without fear of revolt, it needed the invention of the war on terror to galvanise the minds of the people into allowing their hard fought freedoms to be taken away from under their feet.
So today if you live in London, on average, you will be caught 300 times on CCTV cameras – cameras that have been shown to cost £20,000 per crime solved to operate and which 80% of produce pictures of too poor quality to identify criminals.
Your web-browsing habits, emails and phone calls are all stored on a personal database at GCHQ in Cheltenham, Gloucester. Using social topology mapping software this can be used to make a map of who you know, where you go and what you do. How you think can be deduced to no small degree from this information. And it is no short step from there to knowing what information to feed you to lead you to thinking a certain way or influencing your choices towards those which are “best” for society.
The internet threatens everything the elites of this world have worked so long to establish because the lies upon which they base their logic will be undone by it’s very presence. Hence the threat to it from new ideas being pushed by big government, Rothschild and Rockerfeller think tanks and the big media coalitions.
The Government can force you to be vaccinated against “Swine Flu”, even though the vaccine being used in Europe has never and will not be tested on humans. And knowing last time such a thing happened in the USA in 1976 that one person died of the flu and an unknown number of the vaccine (because as numbers mounted the American Medical Association ordered doctors that unless a person died within the immediate 48 hours following vaccination their death must be assigned to other causes – even when they were totally healthy prior to vaccination).
Science is no better ruler of what we “best” do now than the Vatican was when it placed Galileo under house arrest and starved the world of his brilliance. Just look at the biggest experiment they have ever undertaken – CERN’s Large Hadron Collider – which blew up when they turned it on.
If you think politicians are any better then have a think back about the last year or so of world politics and finance.
We have had two thousand years of “democratic” politics and it has not solved a problem yet. Mainly this is because it is, by it’s very nature, undemocratic in the way we employ it – and subject to total infiltration by select groups with personal or other agendas. The stated agenda of “serving the people” is rarely any where near the top of the heap of priorities of a politician.
The image based way we select amongst two groups of (mainly) elite public schoolboys to run this country gives us poor service. It really is time for change. Modern communications can make this world a better place. They give us individual power at the cost of centralised power. Centralised power is fighting back with all it can – but as it steals all it’s power from the single biggest lie – that we “need it” – it will fail.
Long live the people.
Listen to this postDear Gordon Brown, Honourable Members of Parliament, Politicians, Lords, and Etcetera.
Dear Politicians,
I am writing to get a few things off my mind. Some of you I know are in your jobs for genuine reasons of wishing to serve the public. Maybe the majority. However our democracy is broken and it is up to you to fix it.
Being in government or the houses of parliament does not just come with benefits and rights, it comes with responsibilities. You have lost sight of your responsibilities. The collaborative nature of the two party systems sets you apart from the rest of the population. This is unhealthy.
The collaboration between media, finance, the political elite and industrialists that has ruled since 1979 and the election of thatcher must end. The elected members of the House of Commons must take it upon themselves to finish the job of removing the feudal Lords from power. a second elected chamber must be enacted. The powers of the military, secret services and Government must be brought under full scrutiny.
Some people are suggesting fewer elected MP’s is the answer to the current issue of expenses claims that headlines daily. I suggest the opposite. We need to remove the unelected and have a second non geographic based second house. A house that represents the British population in all it’s multicultural glory.
Once you have done this it is time to stop the practice of off shore banking. Tax must be paid in measure equal to income by all who profit from activities on this territory called The United Kingdom – wherever they reside.
The Monarchy must go and the church must be seperated from state. The Queen must be forced into negotiation as to what she owns after the seperation and what goes to the nation. Much of the wealth she holds privately comes from the historic, anachronistic, feudal wealth her blood thirsty forebears accumulated over the centuries and through the rape of the world.
Stop the rot. Start to act. You won’t keep your jobs unless you start to act for the people.
Stop spying on us. We do not like it and it is bad for society. When Government does not trust the people the people will not trust the Government. You started it and you must stop it.
Stop playing global politics with weapons and words and Govern this country lightly and well. It’s a long job to get there but freedom has been fought over and lost so many times. We live at a moment when new technology and communication makes global peace, equality and freedom possible.
However, trying to design that behind the scenes with the global design set by bankers and bilderbergers is not the right way forward.
The New World Order has to be one of freedom and not enslavement. If you have not watched “The Obama Deception” watch it on the post below this one.
The truth is not always what it seems. It is not always pretty. Hardworking MP’s are being screwed in the media to take our minds off the global financial fraud that is being undertaken to help ensure global financial dictatorship by fewer than 300 of the worlds’ richest citizens. They think they have a right to rule us by bloodline – and with our blood, your blood and your childrens’ if needed.
Stand tall and be real. Start demanding change. End the rule of the worlds’ global elite. start at home because London is the keystone in this. Audit the city. Change the world – for the better, please. If you don’t we will do it ourselves, starting by replacing you.

Listen to this postMathematically Perfected Economics: Predicted World Monetary Collapse by 2010.
From perfecteconomy.com:
But by simply calculating periodic interest as any bank statement must, by re-borrowing interest and principal to replenish the circulation — and even allowing for the accumulating sum of debt to be (usually) negligibly diminished by factors such as bankruptcy and consumption of usually little of our production in the course of exploitation — those models not only forecast the Reagan Administration’s tripling of previous national debt, but further projected ultimate world wide monetary failure at approximately 2010 AD.
Is this why the bankers needed to explode and implode the monetary supply and economy right now? At present the money supply is expanding still as Central Banks and Governments in thrall to the robber-bankers throw money at them and their failed institutions. Some are complicit in this massive Ponzi scheme of debt-based economics, others merely ignorant that they are fuelling the fires of the inevitable collapse of consumer-capitalism.
