The Sunshine Vitamin

    Solitarius isn’t about treatment the medical profession provides that. What this website does is provides awareness for instances of hearing it before you hear it from your doctor through treatment.  When you have   knowledge of information,  beforehand,  through knowledge prevention   treatment maybe avoided. Just think of the beneficial aspect that would have on a broken healthcare system.

   Three quarters  of  U.S. Teens  and  adults  are deficient in vitamin D,              it’s been told….  20 minutes in the sun each day is all one needs. To keep your  daily value  at proper limits,  however,  it’s only when the sunlight        is above your head at a 45 degree angle (10 am to 2 pm)  you  gain  that proper  amount.  With  also  according  to  findings…. published  by  the Archives of  Internal Medicine.

    Between  1988 and 1994,  with the 45%  of  the  18,883  people  tested    having  30 ng/mL  or  more  of  vitamin D,  and  a  decade later  just 23 %       of 13,369  people tested having that amount. There was anticipation that there  would  be  some  decline in overall vitamin D  levels,  however,  the magnitude of decline in a relatively short period of time was surprising.

    Adit Ginde,  an  assistant  professor  at  the  University  of  Colorado     Denver School of Medicine says,  “a lack of vitamin D is linked to rickets (soft weak bones in children;  thinning bones  in the elderly,  and plays a role in heart disease,  diabetes  and  cancer.”   Also Ginde who has linked vitamin D  deficiency  to  catching  more  colds,  also  blames  sun  screen following skin cancer prevention campaigns for the change.

   Using sunscreen with as little as a 15 – factor protection cuts the skins vitamin D  production  by  99  percent,  the study notes,  as there are few sources  of  the vitamin in our diets.  Exciting new research conducted at    Creighton  University  School  of  Medicine  in  Nebraska,   has  revealed  supplementing vitamin D and calcium can reduce your risk of cancer by     an astonishing 77 percent.

    This research provides strong evidence that vitamin D is the single        most  effective supplement  against cancer.  This  study  involved  1,179 healthy women  from rural Nebraska.  One group of  women was given calcium (around 1500 mg daily)  and  vitamin D  (1100 iu daily.)  while  another group  was  given  a placebo.  Over  the  four  years,  the  group receiving  calcium  and  vitamin D  supplements  showed  a 60 percent decrease in cancer.

   Note that…. these astonishing effects were achieved on what many nutritionist  consider to be a low dose  of  vitamin D  and  the  calcium supplement was probably calcium carbonate  and  not the high grade calcium malate,  aspartate or similar forms.  So what  It  all  means?                It means “if ” you take high quality calcium supplements or premium         fish oil…. you might  be able to achieve larger percentage reduction.

    The  best  conclusion:  is  to  have  your  blood  tested  for  vitamin D deficiency. If it has been determined that are levels are below 70ng/mL.   You might want to consider building levels up by taking 10,ooo iu’s  for          a short term,  and then taking  between 2,000  to  5,000 iu’s depending         on the nature of your job (being inside or outside work.)
