Vitamin D

   
 

 
 

Vitamin D

While Vitamin D is widely known to be important in calcium status and the maintenance of bone health, it is also a potent therapeutic tool that is currently under-utilised in many other conditions.  It is vital for all immune cells and neurological tissues, and conditions that benefit from adequate Vitamin D levels include many types of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes mellitus, arteriosclerosis and hypertension, to name a few.  Furthermore, the incidence of Vitamin D deficiency is believed to be increasing, and the recommended daily allowance is thought to be largely inaccurate.  This test measures the best indicator of Vitamin D status, known as 25(OH) Vitamin D.  

Conditions associated with poor Vitamin D status include: 

  • Colon, breast, ovarian, cervical, bladder, oesophageal and uterine cancers 
  • Hypertension, arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction
  • Diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, low epinephrine / norepinephrine, low dopamine, thyroiditis, obesity 
  • Parkinson's, schizophrenia, Seasonal Affective Disorder, Autism
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome, pancreatitis 
  • Psoriasis, Seborrhoeic warts 
  • Tuberculosis 
  • Osteoperosis, Osteomalacia
