dermatologists say you to hide and modern living would lead us to believe what we can do well by living in caves - offices, apartments and cars. But our genetic roots, we should ourselves naked and in a climate in which we may be so. This is our home - and what was the norm for 99.99999999 +% of our history. Should we believe dermatologists and modern lifestyle or our genes, and history? The answer is obvious but few live from his wisdom.
This discussion of vitamin D is an incredible and surprising proof of the Wysong philosophy and give you a basic ingredient for your health success.
Given the complexity of vitamin D, even if you do not understand it, the point is that our need for vitamin D is not an accident and proves our inextricable connection to nature. (For those who are not technically savvy, so let your eyes glaze over and move the hard drive. This is crucial for your health, it will remain.) Please note http://www.wysong.net/images/vitamind . jpg
The sunshine vitamin
Vitamin D (actually a hormone) in the skin by the action of ultraviolet light from the sun, a precholesterol molecule (7-dehydrocholesterol). This converted cholesterol molecule (provitamin D) is again modified (hydroxylated) in the liver and kidney are the active 1.25 dihydroxycholecalciferol molecule (1.25
Dihydroxy vitamin D3 = calcitriol). The UV-B wavelength that vitamin D from sunlight (282 nm) does not significantly penetrate glass. So regardless of Windows, if we are inside we can pretty much vitamin-D image is not generated. Clothing of course further seals our fate as sunscreen with SPF above 8 (reduces vitamin D production by 95%). Living in the northern half of the country (about 30 degrees north latitude, the Florida Panhandle) is also inadequate human Dooms sun nearly nine months of the year. If you are dark-skinned you need as much as ten times the amount of sun as a fair skinned person to an adequate level of vitamin D. It 's unnatural enough when fair skinned people living in latitudes, the clothes, dark-skinned people are really fish consists of water and suffer serious consequences as a result.
Food sources of the vitamin, cod liver oil, sardines, salmon, tuna, mackerel, liver, egg yolk, butter, dark green vegetables, algae, fungi, phytoplankton and fortified milk. (Plant source vitamin D is the D2 form known as ergocalciferol [ercalciol] and is not as active as the animal sources.) But in general, food sources insufficient levels when they are eaten raw (the triene in vitamin D is reduced by acid and light-catalyzed isomerization) and in sufficient quantity - most of us do not. Our whole hairless bodies (forcing us to wear unnatural clothes and live in artificially heated environs) and the fact that there are no negative feedback shutdown of the production of vitamin D in the skin, argues strongly that we are in the sun, not dependent on scientists to enhance milk.
Older people have reduced ability to synthesize vitamin D in the skin, have poorer digestive efficiency and decreased liver and kidney function to convert vitamin D into the active form. There is a reason the older people to the south and feel better to do. You may not know exactly why other than not want to shovel snow, but ole Sol has. Even people with malabsorption problems, Crohn's disease, cystic fibrosis, pancreas, liver and kidney disease or defect, or were part of the digestive system are removed with an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D is needed precholesterol and is fat soluble and thus "low fat" diets and "low cholesterol" diet of older people are already deficient in even greater danger.
Some forms of artificial light may be vitamin D in the skin. Tanning salons (not recommended because you can not - and not all others - really know what you are) may be vitamin D in the skin when the highest UV-B: UV-A ratio is used.
As little as 15-30 minutes exposure of the skin (as much as you can without blank arrested) to midday sun three times a week is of the view, sufficient to vitamin D needs. The vitamin is fat soluble and is in the blood and fat, some reserves, but the sun daily vitamin D is synthesized considers optimal.
Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers who are not out in the sun, or a poor diet, are poor sources of vitamin D for their children. Not only the baby's bone health be affected, but just about any other health parameters is so good.
The Master Hormone
Vitamin D is probably the most important hormone in the body. We
Instruction in the elementary school, that vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the intestinal tract, and that drinking fortified milk to prevent rickets. But bone health is only a small part of history. The research has now accumulated demonstrating that our link to the sun, and the vitamin D it produces touches virtually all aspects of physiology.
Vitamin D affects:
> Both autocrine and paracrine (in and out) cellular functions
> Gene
> Cell growth
> Immunity
> Energy Metabolism
> Muscle strength and coordination
> D receptors, which are now in the intestine, bone, brain, breast, prostate and lymphocytes
> Neuronal calcium metabolism
> Neurotransmitter production
> Apoptosis (cell death) signaling neoplastic colon, breast and prostate cells to stop growing
> Inhibition of G1S cell cycle checkpoint, and the enhanced expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors P21 and P27 in cancer
> Reduction of C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukins (IL-6), markers of inflammation such as in atherosclerosis (vascular diseases) and arthritic conditions
> Brain Development
In short, almost no aspect of anatomy, physiology and biochemistry escapes the influence of vitamin D. Our link to the sun and absolutely!
This solves a mystery for me annoying years. If I were to the south in the winter I would have an almost miraculous transformation in health care. No sickness, great sleep, incredible energy and good mood. I did my training and to lift more weight, and play on the same day, two on two beach volleyball for hours (not easy for sure, sports), Rollerblade miles to the beach and the food trade and back with 50 lbs. and still a whole day work of research, reading, writing and sharing with the office. Back
Home All of these wonders would reverse. Was it the heat, the oxygen-rich air from the sea, a departure from the usual routine work? Now I know. I am a vitamin D-hungry boys. Give me enough vitamin D, and I'm almost twice as high as the person I am, without
it. It could be. Read on.
Decisions have consequences
Ignore the nature and price. We are for the out-of-doors with the skin exposed to the sun. If we do not do that (note, I said only one) of the possible consequences is vitamin D deficiency. Here are the health consequences of too little Vitamin D discovered so far - all in the clinical and scientific evidence to follow:
> Psoriasis
> Immunosuppression / infection increases
> Thyroid Dysfunction
> Coagulation abnormalities
> Rachitis
> Osteomalacia
> Osteoporosis
> Deafness
> Insomnia
> Vision loss
> Kidney Diseases
> Liver disease
> Muscle pain (an early sign of deficiency)
> Schizophrenia, chronic fatigue and depression
> Autism
> Colon, breast, prostate, and 14 other cancers (including melanoma), after a latitude (vitamin D deficiency) gradient
> Infertility
> Type I diabetes (insulin-dependent)
> Obesity
> Lupus erythematosis
> Grave disease
> Ankylosing spondylitis
> Bone pain (reduced D decreases calcium absorption, which stimulates parathyroid hormone, which in turn increases phosphate excretion in the urine, leading to decreased
Calcium phosphate in collagen in the peri-and endosteum what hydration, swelling and bone pain)
> Rheumatoid Arthritis
> Muscular Sclerosis
> Periodontal disease
> Hypertension
> Cardiovascular disease (increases in winter and higher latitudes)
> Decreased glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity
I am sure that only the list. Since vitamin D affects everything that you can very well that the number, if you are ill or not well it is in relation to vitamin D deficiency, at least in part, because more than 95% of the population in the U.S. is flawed.
Toxicity
Let me preface this section as I do every topic where I toxicity. Everything can be toxic, even water and oxygen, in sufficient dose. The dose makes the poison.
If you are worried about the cancer from the sun, thinking about the CAP. Faith, nature, before you believe a dermatologist. Certainly do not get sunburn. There is evidence that cancer may be related to those who burned Sunday and vitamin D-deficient to begin. Do not stay in the sun longer than you should because you have SPF 460 slathered on. Acclimate to the sun. Clothing. Protect the skin, not with nontoxic Sunday blocks (Wysong Reflector ™).
With regard to melanoma, the view that the most common places for it to appear on the backs of men and inner thighs of women. Not on the back of the hands and face, most of them in the sun. Melanoma does not decrease in the use of sunscreens. Some studies show that increased sunlight actually reduces the risk of melanoma.
No, the Sun is not toxic, it is life and health, the appropriate dose.
There has never been a report on the vitamin D toxicity from sun exposure. This is the best and safest source. But not everyone can be enough sun, so added to the next best thing. It is possible to order too much, but the margin of safety is immense. The government has the minimum standard of 400 IU per day. But a person must be of 42,000 capsules each containing 1000 IU a 50% chance of dying if he is as sensitive to vitamin D as the most sensitive animals studied. A man was sick, of 156,000 IU per day for two years. A researcher, tired of all the naysayers claiming vitamin D is so toxic, a reward for anyone who could show what all the vitamin D toxicity at 40,000 units per day. No, as far as to take advantage of them.
With this said, certain conditions could increase the risk of toxicity. These include people with Williams syndrome (a genetic defect in vitamin D metabolism), sarcoidosis, hyperparathyroidism, some cancers, adrenal insufficiency and the people on certain medications such as thiazide diuretics. Symptoms of overdose are vomiting,
Nausea, diarrhea, constipation, polyuria (increased urination), polydypsia (increased thirst), nervousness, confusion, itching, Calcinosis (deposition of calcium in the tissues) and arrhythmia. Most cases involved persons who are among more than 50,000 IU per day for years. In infants 10,000 IU per day for 4 months and 200,000 IU per day for two weeks, toxicity. Why adults would be receiving such large doses is about me.
Remember that the government standard is 400 IU per day.
If concerned about the toxicity of oral supplements, with a nutritional deficiencies experienced doctor. Blood tests that measure vitamin D, calcium and parathyroid hormone are useful for this purpose. Ideal for calcitriol (25-hydroxyvitamin D) between 30-50 ng / ml depending on the experts. It is known that less than 35 ng / ml decreases the rate of calcium absorption from the intestine, so that you are doubtful flawed. Sunshine alone can cause the blood of 80 ng / ml people who work outside or live from the equator have about 50 ng / ml therefore, I would certainly say that these laboratories levels as low as 8 ng / ml "" normal. "If serum calcium is above the normal range of 8.5-10.5 mg / dl, especially in the above-12-age group, this may indicate vitamin D toxicity as well.
I hate to give you the impression that health is determined by the numbers so to speak. No laboratory ever denies nor proves good health when the body tells you contrary. But I would be remiss not to mention the reservations, and means that you can use to more certain where you stand. I have the impression - in the absence of some weird medical or genetic circumstance - is that if you are not always in the sun almost every day and not eating appropriate vitamin D-rich foods or supplements, you are a high risk for the multitude of diseases that can lead to.
Supplement
Opinions about the additional oral doses of vitamin D. The government has recently ratcheted recommendations from the previous 40 IU to 200 IU for the less than 50 years old, 400 IU for those over 50 and 600 IU for more than 70 That is the conservative. Most knowledge in this field say that 1000 IU per day for infants and 2000 IU per day for adults without laboratory tests and Sunday Next in line are those who say 3000-5000 IU per day (6-10,000 of plant form of vitamin D2, ergocalciferol) for adults is best, 4000 IU is the most common dose I see suggested. Remember that young whites get about 20,000 IU of a few minutes of full sunlight. Some practitioners are aggressive and give what are known as shock-doses of 100,000 IU every 4 months in the elderly, to prevent osteoporosis for example.
Cod liver oil is the concentrated natural source of vitamin D. One tablespoon contains about 1200 IU finding that hard to consume around 4000 IU per day and no certainty as to the purity and stability of the products, we developed our own concentrated supplement tested free of mercury and other toxic substances, mixed with omega-3-fish and flaxseed oils, borage oil, the GLA, properly stabilized with Wysong Oxherphol ™ antioxidant. That is what I do now in autumn, winter and spring, when I'm not the best source for vitamin D all, the sun.
Pet food regulatory agencies for the minimum at 500 IU / kg of food to the dry mass and the upper limit at 5000 IU (ie if your pet eats 1 pound of dry food per day should be about 250 - 2500 IU vitamin D per day, conservatively ). Since you can not know for sure what is in a commercial pet food, Do not be fooled, the rotation being in optimum health Program ™ is recommended. At least at regular intervals (3-times per week) giving1000 IU capsules (can be opened and food) is good insurance.
What about vitamin D is unlike what you are doing other supplements. That is something you should take very seriously, because vitamin D status is, so to speak, a marker for how well we live in harmony with nature. Living in harmony with nature and the way we are genetically designed is fundamental to the health Wysong philosophy I continually preach. Low vitamin D means that the wrong things. Like the little canaries in the cages miners would be with them in the caves to signal its death, that air was toxic and the miners better skedaddle out of our diseases are the warning signs in more cases than we previously thought that we do not live right . Our Cave as modern life is a curse for good health.
The solution is to return to our roots. Roots firmly planted where our health flower in the sun.
