Another reason not to give much credence to the report is the claim by one of the paper's co-authors, Amy Proal, that:"Vitamin D is currently being recommended at historically unprecedented doses. Yet at the same time, the rate of nearly every autoimmune disease continues to escalate."
I strongly doubt that more than a tiny fraction of the public is taking vitamin D in "historically unprecedented doses." And there are so many other variables out there that are more likely to be associated with the increase in autoimmune disease. For example, the increasing use of sunscreens that more effectively block UV rays.
