Vitamin D and Cardiovascular Disease Prevention

Can vitamin D help prevent certain cancers and other diseases such as type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain autoimmune and chronic diseases? To answer these questions and more, UCSD School of Medicine and GrassrootsHealth bring you this innovative series on vitamin D deficiency. Join nationally recognized experts as they discuss the latest research and its implications. In this program, David Sane, MD, discusses the prevention of cardiovascular disease through vitamin D.

Very interesting video and great to know that vitamin D3 is being recognized as a major preventative to cardiovascular disease. Check out the Muscadinex channel to learn more about the benefits of vitamin D3.

thank you for the informative post and keep up the good work!

@ECHutchinson There is no problem w/ the sun, there is however a problem w/ the humans e.g. “control system”. The sun is obfuscated & vilified by Geo-engineers & commercials promoting dangerous sunscreens. How many people lather on sunscreens chalked full Aluminum that block the UVB While in letting in the UVA?

Sure winter is difficult time to have V/D3 synthesis occur. In addition summers w/ Chemtrails are harder still.

thanks for sharing this important info,,

Ivanuthername, the critical kind of UV to get is UVB. UVB is much more time of day/ time of year/latitude specific than UVA. Thanks to "sunscreens" you can be a "tanned outdoorsy" type and still not get enough vit D producing UVB year round. Our ancestors lived in lower more equatorial latitudes for most of human evolution and certainly got more UVB than we do now. We evolved under such sunny circumstances and cannot have changed quickly enough to change our need for adequate UVB.

Natural selection determined latitude specific skin colour for living outdoors naked .

Who lives naked outdoors now?

We now wear more clothes and spend more time indoors or under cover.

Modern diets include foods like HFCS and industrially made omega 6 vegetable not only place extra demands on our use of vitamin D but also reduce our ability to metabolize and store D3.

Human breast milk flows replete with D3 when 25(OH)D is 50ng

"Mad dogs and ....

The medical community now recommends levels ... not reached by many tanned, outdoorsy people.

To stay above the recommended minimum of 75-150 nmol/L, we must take supplements. Yet even dietary supplementation seems to be countered within the body.

It looks like natural selection has aimed for an optimal vitamin D level substantially lower than the recommended minimum of 75-150 nmol/L. This in turn implies some kind of disadvantage above the optimal level." Early death?

This should be part of the new health plan. So critical and dispersal so limited.

Cholecalciferol is an inert, inactive substance.

It is biologically identical to the cholecalciferol made in your skin by the action of UVB on the cholesterol in your skin.

Before Vitamin D3 can be used it first has to be hydroxylated into Calcidiol (the form that circulates in you blood and measured in 25(OH)D tests (half life roughly 21days) for this to become the active metabolite a further hydroxylation is required to create calcitriol (half life 3~6hrs)
