5. Prostate cancer and low vitamin D
There’s some evidence that low levels of vitamin D may play a role in prostate health. One recent study found that prostate cancer may be among the illnesses linked to vitamin D deficiency.
Scientists looked at vitamin D levels in 660 men ages 40 to 79 who were undergoing prostate biopsies. The link between prostate cancer and vitamin D seemed especially strong in African American men, with results indicating that African American men with vitamin D deficiency were more likely to test positive for the cancer compared to other men with normal vitamin D levels.
Though the study didn’t prove that low levels of vitamin D led to prostate cancer, it showed that the two factors may be associated and also that you may help reduce your risk of developing the disease by ensuring you get enough vitamin D.

I really hate when this happens. You say 10 health diseases with low Vitiam D, but never say what they are. If you going to start please finish.
They want you to buy things that might cause something else. And then they will sell you and advertise a medicine that cures it, without knowing if it really does!! That is what Obama/Clinton started and what made the creep a billionaire, starting at almost $0.

Same goes for this company selling a bottle of vitamins, slapping their name on the bottle & selling to nerve problem patients instead of just informing patients of the name & formula of these vitamins. Shame, shame.
A Doc told me my vitamin D level was too high…I was hoping to find info on it. You offer but don’t fulfill . I guess you have to get your quota of ads somehow. But it makes me hate the internet and its stupidity even more. Or perhaps it’s because I keep hoping people are honest and get disappointed.

Before taking any kind of supplementation, especially with vitamin D since it is a fat soluble and is stored for many weeks after work, get a vitamin D level done first achieve a baseline, and then supplement if needed vitamin supplements are just that they are to be utilized if you have a deficiency, not a preventative measure so many people take them thinking the boost and build up their immune system works with an actuality it can actually do more havoc on you and as with vitamin D, it takes about three to a month for it to start to stabilize and be utilized by your body after stopping listen to your body your body knows more than any doctor or anybody else?
