Gominak's theory is likely to be only partly correct in the end - based on what I've read so far (or maybe I've understood her theory incorrectly). Gut bacteria don't seem to directly "make use" of Vitamin D produced by our skin but there is a strong association the between diversity of gut bacteria and ACTIVE Vitamin D (that type is not measured by routine blood tests). Bacteria are therefore involved in the CONVERSION OF INACTIVE VITAMIN D to the active form but no one knows how precisely that happens. Paper (2020): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19793-8 Summary of paper: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/gut-bacteria-and-vitamin-d-what-is-the-link#Stores-of-inactive-vitamin-D I got to move on, now. This topic will remain inconclusive because the science is not settled. The issue of BEING INDOORS most of the time is one of the most plausible factors of "modern life" that underpins disease. But that's not enough. It has to be combined with things like antibiotics that damage the gut microbiome - making it harder to metabolise Vitamin D into the active form. Possibly, therefore, here's the sequence: LOW VITAMIN D (INACTIVE FORM) + DAMAGED MICROBIOME >> LESS ACTIVE VITAMIN D >> disruption and disease.
