Healthy people are taking "toxic" levels of Vitamin D supplements due to a pandemic myth and are putting themselves at increased risk of breaking their bones, according to a study.

The warning, from a top bone specialist, comes as new Irish data also shows that 35% of over-40s, men and women, may be at risk of osteoporosis, having broken a bone in a simple fall.
