     Cancer researchers urged people on Wednesday to take more vitamin D to lower risk of cancer
saying studies showed a clear link. "Our suggestion is for people to increase their intake (吸入 摄入)
through diet or a vitamin supplement " Dr. Cedric Garland said in a telephone interview.
     Garland's research team reviewed 63 studies including several large long-term ones on the
relationship between vitamin D and certain types of cancer worldwide between 1966 and 2004. "There's
nothing that has this ability to prevent cancer " he said urging governments and public health officials to
do more to fortify (增强) foods with vitamin D. Garland is member of a team at San Diego Moores
Cancer Hospital that published its findings this week online in the American Journal of Public Health.
Vitamin D is found in milk as well as in some fortified orange juice yogurt and cheeses usually at
around 100 international units(IU)a serving.  "People might want to consider a vitamin supplement to
raise their intake to 1000 units per day" Garland said adding that it was well within the safety guidelines
established by the National Academy of Sciences.
     The authors said that taking more vitamin D could be especially important for people living in northern
areas which receive less vitamin D from sunshine.
     "African Americans who don't produce as much of the vitamin because of their skin color could also
benefit significantly from a higher intake " the authors said.
