Cancer doesn't have to be, if you are therapeutic in Vitamin D!

When a person has cancer for instance, if they were to have their Vitamin D level checked...they would probably be shown to be deficent or not at therapeutic range. Therapeutic range is from 50ng/ml of blood to 100ng/ml of blood. Those that have Cancer currently, can certainly benefit from their Doctors/Oncologists working toward that end of therapeutic range, as this will cause the cancer cells to destruct (apoptosis) cellular death...not of the good cells, but of the cancer cells. If you have no cancer that you are aware of, then finding out what your Vitamin D level is, and getting it to therapeutic levels will prevent the occurrence of cancer formation by virtue of strengthening the cells binding sites. When a person is non-therapeutic, their cells are able to split apart easily and become different cell types, such as cancer.  If you are good in therapeutic levels of Vitamin D, then your cells are like "Super Glue" and can't break apart.  There are many amazing and incredible benefits that stem from therapeutic levels in D.  D allows or enables the rest of the minerals and vitamins to do their work.  Also, science has revealed that Vitamin D, once therapeutic also acts as an antimicrobial.  Hence, summertime there is less viral infections but the flu season arrives like clockwork, once the days get shorter, less sunlight, and less activity outdoors.  The synthesized Vitamin D of the summertime runs low by mid winter, and then that is when illness pours in.  That doesn't have to be, as long as you are therapeutic in Vitamin D.

Most people are not aware that Vitamin D competes for the same receptor site as Vitamin A.  Most multivitamins have far more A in them than D, so it makes D a mute point.  Not fair!  To counter this imbalance, I always take a larger dose of Vitamin D, at a different time of day.  Also, people don't require the huge lump of A that they put in Multivitamins, as A is more readily found in lots of food and drinks than you can ever find with Vitamin D.

There are other reasons that cancer can form, such as people with HIV where their immune system is in failure mode.

The news on Vitamin D has been dated back since 1937. The RDA just changed their RDA value for Vitamin D in fact! For ever and a day the RDA stated 400 I U of Vitamin D was sufficient. Not by a long shot! Now, RDA within this past year changed it to 2000 I U per day. Which, still doesn't account for people that take a multivitamin. Multivitamins have far more Vitamin A than D...so, let's say Vitamin A is 2500 I U or typical is 4000 I U...and your Vitamin D supplement gives you 2000 I U...well Vitamin A wins! They both compete for the same receptor site!!! 15 minutes ago

Sunshine, isn't what it used to be. With the depletion of the Ozone layer, the damaging UV rays, cannot give the efficient dose of Vitamin D that it once did, because people have abused the sun so much, that their skin damage alone prevents the effective synthesis by that exposure. Plus, the fatter a person is, the more deficient they are in Vitamin D. Vitamin D being a hormone, is a Lipophilic (fat based) hormone, goes to the fat first, the more fat the more vitamin D is required. That is why people everywhere need to know what their baseline is.  All people have different metabolisms, BMI, and skin damage. Knowing and following your D levels should be top priority. Vitamin D enables the rest of the vitamins and minerals perform their job.  This doesn't mean that Vitamin D is the cure-all.  It means, you need Vitamin D to be at a therapeutic level in order to strengthen your cells, to enable the rest of the minerals and vitamins to perform their jobs adequately and efficently.  A good diet can only be as good as the quality of food you can obtain.  With the depletion of the soil, the mansonto gang changing the seed structure in the foods that are mass produced, a person is hardpressed to find good quality "foodstuffs" so taking supplements in my opinion is good on many levels.  Again, first find out what your Vitamin D level is, get that baseline then get therapeutic.  Keep that part of your follow-up care with your physician when you get your physical.

Being therapuetic with your Vitamin D levels has many implications.  So many in fact, you would tear your hair out to learn that this information has been known since 1937! 

The fatter you are, the more deficient you are likely to be in Vitamin D.  The reason for that is the lipophillic attraction.  Vitamin D, is a hormone that is fat bound.  If you are not getting enough sunshine (Like 20 minutes of 40 percent of your body exposed to sunlight) not abusing the sun, as sun damage causes way too many ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) which then creates a whole other problem for your immune system to fight the free radicals.  Free Radicals are the byproducts of oxygen metabolism, insult to injury when a person injures their skin from a sunburn, and you not only have radicals, but a whole host of inflammatory factors show up to the scene, and create their own debris in the repair process.  The body is bombarded with attacts at every end of the spectrum.  More on ROS later, the point of fat on the body, is based on the fact that Vitamin D has to saturate all the fat, by filling all the fat receptor sites, once this is done then Vitamin D from your supplement, or sun exposure (not too much) can then quantify itself and perform the job in the rest of the body cells.  Fat Cells take up lots of space.

The multitudes of receptor sites for Vitamin D are enormous!  Scientists have uncovered over 2500 receptor sites alone, for Vitamin D.  Receptor sites are found at every cellular level.  That includes the heart cells, the vessels cells, kidney cells, endothelia cells, the list goes on.
