For example, I've been supplementing with nicotinamide riboside for a few years now. I stop occasionally and when I do stiff and sore hands and knees return and I get more headaches.
I'd love to know if I'm deluding myself (placebo effect?) or there's good science that backs up my experience.
The results from examine.com for nicotinamide are interesting, but not as focused or concise (or usable) as the vitamin D information in this posting.
Was it that obvious? It would be cool if I could have a theme song. [1] and yeah I don't know how to fix the US health care system.

HN often suffers from the trait of people who are really bright in one area assuming that that means they are really knowledgeable in areas they don't know much about.
Edit: OK, that's not really a "range". I have no idea why I phrased it like that. Both are very dangerous statements that can be life threatening if the wrong person believes it. I just hope that comment didn't cause any diabetic ketoacidosis cases.
Having a reason doesn't make it any less dangerous though.
We can also relate that some drugs (albeit most are illegal but whatever, it doesn't invalidate them) from recreational to bodybuilding drugs are practically only massively "studied" by the bro-science community and many topic about harm reduction and so-on stems from there, enormous amount of people have started getting interested into health, supplements... due to reading about it randomly from people.
Although, in practice, you are partially right, it also does damage because many people will just take it as face value and just don't have enough expertise yet to do a proper reasoning around some takes and might not check if it's factual.
Skip the D2 vitamin.
Lame. It started like enjoying an encyclopedia and ended like getting my face punched by a narcissistic robot who might have lied about facts and gave no way to spot check except redoing the entire article again myself from scratch. A novella on biophysics and no works cited?
Reading 7k words on biophysics with supposed data and science facts and getting hit with dozens of self reference footnotes instead of external citations is offensive to my intelligence.
I do not have the karma for the downvote button so I shall simply leave this.
Vitamin D is rat poison. The stuff they use in randomly controlled trials is not the stuff your body makes on its own. Too much sun and skin produced vitamin will not kill you. Too much rat poison will.
Real human research per the Material Safety Data Sheets with zero slop:

Note that adequate magnesium is critical for proper vitamin D function, but the article doesn't document it.
In contrast, the air contains oxygen which is sufficient for most people with normal lung function.
Rickets still occurs in Africa with abundant sunlight, but with polio still present. (The strains that come from vaccines are usually not counted.)
As somebody who spends an insane amount of time inside, the lack for exposure to the Sun mot just affected vitamin D levels but eyes sight too, they were terrible, and also mood.
Taking vitamin D pill instead of Sun is not the same.
