For the majority of her life, Sue endured an undiagnosed vitamin D deficiency from lack of adequate sun exposure, a common situation for millions of people living outside the equatorial region. After retiring in her early 50's, Sue parlayed her science background with a quest to attain a medical understanding of hormonal imbalance. She attended medical conferences and workshops to learn about vitamin D and other hormones from renowned international experts. Having extensively researched compelling medical findings about vitamin D's benefits, Sue successfully became "vitamin D healthy." She shares her impassioned self-help success and knowledge about vitamin D in Defend Your Life with the hope that the information in her book will empower the health and quality of life of many people.
