Related only tangentially. Doctor recommended a vitamin D supplement. Couple years later after terrible acid reflux, I eliminate prescribed medication X which solves 80% of reflux symptoms and pain. After self testing the remaining 20% of symptoms were caused by the vitamin D gummy supplement, tomatoes, and onions.

So yeah vitamin d might help on one hand, but cause it’s own issues in different areas.

No more vitamins for me. Better to eat well and get the occasional bit of Sun.

Same, I now just use the dminder app to track exposure.
If the gummy had whatever-it-is (Haribo no-sugar alternative), that may have been the issue, not the vitamin D molecule itself.
