The Purpose of SeguraBlawg's Vitamin D3 Blawg

I have come to believe that many of the diseases that plague us have, as their root cause, a gross insufficiency/deficiency of Vitamin D3, and its bioavailable metabolized product, calcitriol. In the pages that follow you will find scores of medical journal articles which document, via carefully constructed and executed scientific experimentation, the myriad disease-inducing effects of chronic Vitamin D3 deficiency in the human body.

More importantly, this body of scientific medical research also underscores our ever expanding awareness of the hundreds of salutary effects flowing from achieving and maintaining optimal Vitamin D3 serum levels.

Through this Vitamin D3 Blawg I seek to enlighten and encourage those who quietly, at times, desperately, suffer from Vitamin D3-mediated diseases they long believed to be irremediable, but which may now soon be understood and overcome through the conscientious application of rigorous scientific medical investigation, experimentation and discovery.

Vitamin D and diabetes

Vitamin D and diabetes

"Regular doses of vitamin D (VTD)—about 2000 IU/d—early in life have been shown to reduce the risk of developing type 1 diabetes (up to an 80% reduction projected over the next 30 years).1 Vitamin D treatment has also improved glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in people with type 1 diabetes, people with type 2 diabetes, and normal individuals.2–4 Low VTD levels in elderly men have been associated with insulinemia and glucose intolerance.5 Low VTD levels in general have been associated with insulin resistance and obesity.6 Likewise, β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance are also associated with low VTD levels."
