In a recent article published in the journal Menopause, Chinese scientists found that higher amounts of calcidiol (25-hydroxyvitamin D) and estrogen corresponded to better markers of MetS, including lipid profile, blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose, in postmenopausal women.

Their findings underscore the potential synergistic role of calcidiol and estrogen deficiencies in the pathogenesis of MetS in postmenopausal women.A combination ...

Science once again documents vitamin D’s anti-cancer properties

June 14, 2020 - calcidiol. As the most stable form of vitamin D, this metabolite is used as a biomarker for determining a person’s vitamin D status.

From the liver, calcidiol is processed either by the kidneys, epithelial cells (i.e., cells that line the surface of organs) or immune cells to produce the physiologically active 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Also called calcitriol, this active form of vitamin D acts as the high-affinity ligand -- a molecule that binds to a specific ...

An unhealthy weight can affect your body’s ability to use vitamin D

July 04, 2019 - calcidiol, the main form of vitamin D in the blood.

Interestingly, this may even explain – at least partially – why being overweight raises people’s risk of a variety of diseases.

Obesity is also a known ...

Sunlight, Vitamin D & Prostate Cancer

a long time ago - calcidiol), bind to the hormone's receptors (VDR) within the nuclei of cells. Together, calcitriol and the VDR induce the cells to differentiate, thereby inhibiting cellular proliferation and tumour growth.

The foregoing information leaves no doubt that protracted interruptions in the accessibility of UV-B, and insufficient vitamin D supplementation in winter, are directly implicated in the etiology and progression of prostate cancer.

Simple vitamin D supplementation could halt covid pandemic, research finds

December 13, 2021 -

Independent researchers identified a direct correlation between blood levels of vitamin D and risk of death from the Fauci Flu. The higher one's serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD3), the lower the mortality risk from Chinese Germs.

In order to stay protected against infection, blood levels of 25OHD3 must be at least 50 ng/mL. This is why it is critical to have your blood tested if you are unsure what yours are.

"Much research shows that blood calcidiol ...

Nature’s antivirals: Boost your immune system with vitamins C and D

April 23, 2020 - calcidiol.

Vitamin D plays a critical function in immunity. According to a recent study published in The British Medical Journal, vitamin D protects against pathogens that cause respiratory conditions including asthma, pneumonia and the flu. Moreover, vitamin D supplementation reduced the risk of acute respiratory tract infection and enhanced the body's immunity against respiratory pathogens.

Vitamin D also regulates blood pressure, supports cardiovascular ...

Boost your immune system with vitamin D during the pandemic

May 20, 2020 - calcidiol, a less potent form of vitamin D.

Vitamin D is considered an essential immune-boosting nutrient. According to a recent review published in The British Medical Journal, vitamin D combats certain viral and bacterial pathogens responsible for asthma, pneumonia and the flu. It's worth noting that these conditions cause symptoms that mirror those of COVID-19.

Another recent investigation noted a strong correlation between vitamin D deficiency and COVID-19 ...
