Vitamin D links Search terms: * 'vitamin D deficiency' --> many, but virtually none mention more than the long-known gross deficiency effects. Revolution in understanding of vitamin D importance has only occured in last few years, it still hasn't sunk in to most of the medical profession yet.

"We think that if you're exposed to a virus [and] you have sufficient vitamin D, those cells will be better equipped to fight off that organism so you don’t get an infection," says Ginde, an assistant professor of surgery in his university's department of emergency medicine. In people with vitamin D deficiency, it's possible that "those cells don’t work as well so you're more like to get a cold or infection or something more severe." http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20061111/bob9.asp http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/51913.php Epidemic Influenza And Vitamin D (EXCELLENT article! by J J Cannell) http://www.ahrp.org/cms/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=396 Theory suggests that a shortage of vitamin D triggers outbreaks of flu (pdf) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16959053 http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=469543 http://www.curehunter.com/public/pubmed16959053.do Paper Title: Epidemic influenza and vitamin D. Abstract: In 1981, R. Edgar Hope-Simpson proposed that a 'seasonal stimulus' intimately associated with solar radiation explained the remarkable seasonality of epidemic influenza. Solar radiation triggers robust seasonal vitamin D production in the skin; vitamin D deficiency is common in the winter, and activated vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D, a steroid hormone, has profound effects on human immunity. 1,25(OH)2D acts as an immune system modulator, preventing excessive expression of inflammatory cytokines and increasing the 'oxidative burst' potential of macrophages. Perhaps most importantly, it dramatically stimulates the expression of potent anti-microbial peptides, which exist in neutrophils, monocytes, natural killer cells, and in epithelial cells lining the respiratory tract where they play a major role in protecting the lung from infection. Volunteers inoculated with live attenuated influenza virus are more likely to develop fever and serological evidence of an immune response in the winter. Vitamin D deficiency predisposes children to respiratory infections. Ultraviolet radiation (either from artificial sources or from sunlight) reduces the incidence of viral respiratory infections, as does cod liver oil (which contains vitamin D). An interventional study showed that vitamin D reduces the incidence of respiratory infections in children. We conclude that vitamin D, or lack of it, may be Hope-Simpson's 'seasonal stimulus'.

However, interventional studies to test this effect are lacking. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this analysis was to determine the efficacy of calcium alone and calcium plus vitamin D in reducing incident cancer risk of all types. DESIGN: This was a 4-y, population-based, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial. The primary outcome was fracture incidence, and the principal secondary outcome was cancer incidence. The subjects were 1179 community-dwelling women randomly selected from the population of healthy postmenopausal women aged >55 y in a 9-county rural area of Nebraska centered at latitude 41.4 degrees N. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive 1400-1500 mg supplemental calcium/d alone (Ca-only), supplemental calcium plus 1100 IU vitamin D3/d (Ca + D), or placebo. RESULTS: When analyzed by intention to treat, cancer incidence was lower in the Ca + D women than in the placebo control subjects (P < 0.03). With the use of logistic regression, the unadjusted relative risks (RR) of incident cancer in the Ca + D and Ca-only groups were 0.402 (P = 0.01) and 0.532 (P = 0.06), respectively. When analysis was confined to cancers diagnosed after the first 12 mo, RR for the Ca + D group fell to 0.232 (CI: 0.09, 0.60; P < 0.005) but did not change significantly for the Ca-only group. In multiple logistic regression models, both treatment and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations were significant, independent predictors of cancer risk. CONCLUSIONS: Improving calcium and vitamin D nutritional status substantially reduces all-cancer risk in postmenopausal women. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00352170. http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/health/schoolboy-wins-vitamin-d-campaign-1.990218 Schoolboy wins vitamin D campaign Move to raise awareness of link to multiple sclerosis Ryan and Kirsten McLaughlin Kenny Hodgart Published on 6 Dec 2009 http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/health/holistic_alternative_medicine/news.php?q=1265750499 http://www.naturalnews.com/028119_vitamin_D_brst_cancer.html Breast cancer virtually "eradicated" with higher levels of vitamin D 20100308 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/7379094/Vitamin-D-triggers-and-arms-the-immune-system.html Vitamin D triggers and arms the immune system Vitamin D is crucial to the fending off of infections; new research finding. http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/health/holistic_alternative_medicine/news.php?q=1268424592 http://www.naturalnews.com/028257_Senator_McCain_dietary_supplements.html Epidemic of Vitamin D deficiency sweeping the world http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/health/holistic_alternative_medicine/news.php?q=1268499245 http://www.naturalnews.com/028355_vitamin_D_insulin_sensitivity.html Vitamin D Improves Insulin Sensitivity, Helps Prevent Diabetes http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/03/16/warning-new-proof-confirms-if-you-take-this-supplement-vitamin-d-will-not-work-as-well.aspx The British Medical Journal has published a remarkable paper confirming that low vitamin D levels obtained in the past are a risk factor for developing colon cancer in the future. But the study contained an even more significant finding -- as Dr. Cannell's site has reported before, vitamin A, even in relatively low amounts, can thwart vitamin D's association with reduced rates of colon cancer. This is the largest study to date showing vitamin A blocks vitamin D's effect. Hidden on page eight of the paper was one sentence and a small table, showing that the benefits of vitamin D are almost entirely negated in those with the highest vitamin A (retinol) intake. 20100407 http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/health/holistic_alternative_medicine/news.php?q=1270665402 New Study Suggests Asthma Could Have a Natural Fix!

The researchers were investigating why women living in the northeastern United States are more likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and they suspected they would find an association with air pollution. Instead, their research has raised the strong possibility that RA results from vitamin D deficiency due to not getting enough exposure to one of nature's most powerful healers -- sunlight. 20100507 http://www.vancouversun.com/health/Higher+daily+doses+vitamin+lower+risk+preterm+births+Study/2980051/story.html Higher daily doses of vitamin D lower risk of preterm births: Study All pregnant women should take 4,000 international units of vitamin D daily — 10 to 20 times the dose the leaders of Canada's pregnancy specialists currently recommend — to lower their risk of preterm labour, preterm birth and infections concludes the first study to investigate the safety of high doses of vitamin D during pregnancy.

The study of blood levels of 1,200 healthy women found that women whose serum vitamin D level was low during the three-month period just before diagnosis had approximately three times the risk of breast cancer as women in the highest vitamin D group. The study is currently published online in advance of the print edition of the journal Cancer Causes and Control. 20200410 http://joannenova.com.au/2020/04/perhaps-solve-the-other-pandemic-vitamin-d-deficiency-to-help-beat-coronavirus/ 20200824 http://joannenova.com.au/2020/08/wow-vitamin-d-deficiency-may-cause-40-of-respiratory-deaths-in-older-people/ Vitamin D deficiency may cause 40% of respiratory deaths in older people It’s really quite a scandal. Historians will marvel that societies that were advanced enough to stream reality-tv-shows at 100 million bits per second, were also so backwards that half the population was deficient in Vitamin D — something that costs 6 cents a dose or comes free from the sun. Nearly 60% of older Germans were deficient, and the ESTHER study puts a fine point on how much that matters. Almost 10,000 people were followed for 15 years in Germany, and during that time about half the people who died of respiratory illnesses might not have died if they had enough Vitamin D. In this German study 44% did not have adequate Vitamin D and about 1 in 6 people have levels so low they are clinically deficient. Imagine if someone found a drug that stopped nearly half of all influenza deaths? 20230514 https://cholecalciferol.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page Information about Vitamin-D3 (Cholecalciferol). 20240315 https://patriots.win/p/17si9rztT7/big-pharma-is-terrified-of-vitam/c/ Big Pharma is ‘TERRIFIED’ of Vitamin D
