There’s a secret hiding on the shelves of your local health-food store – a humble bottle filled with pills masquerading as a simple vitamin. But those tablets contain something way more powerful than your everyday nutrient. In fact, the “vitamin” I’m about to tell you about has the amazing ability to act like a hormone once it enters your body. And its effects – stronger bones, fewer fractures, and even the potential for a lower risk of conditions as diverse as back pain and autoimmune disease – make this supplement anything but ordinary.

On Wednesday, November 30, 2010, the Institute of Medicine’s Food and Nutrition Board issued a report saying, in essence, that taking more than 800 IU of supplemental vitamin D was unnecessary and could even be harmful (more on this in a minute).

Studies show that blacks have higher rates of hypertension (high blood pressure) than whites in the U.S. They also have lower circulating levels of vitamin D or 25(OH)D. John P. Forman, MD, MSc, and colleagues conducted a clinical trial involving an 250 black participants who were randomly assigned to receive either placebo or one of three doses of vitamin D3 (or cholecalciferol at 1,000, 2,000 or 4,000 IU daily).

However, most of these studies were conducted among people whose sunlight exposure may be limited since they were living in high latitudes in northern Europe. A new study shows that vitamin D levels among children with type 1 diabetes mellitus are low, even in a subtropical region, where sunlight exposure is much greater, particularly in Australia. Vitamin D is synthesized in the skin which has been exposed to ultraviolet B radiation from […]
