Increases muscle and bone strength while decreasing pain with Vitamin D3.

Vitamin D3 is not actually a vitamin, but a hormone. Vitamins are not able to be made but must be obtained from the diet. Ninety to 100% of Vitamin D Hormone is made in the skin from cholesterol under the influence of UVB radiation.

If you go out in the summer sun in your bathing suit until your skin just begins to turn pink, you make an average of 20,000 international units (IU) of Vitamin D in your skin. Translation: a few minutes in the midday summer sun produces 100 times more vitamin D than the government says you need!

Benefits of Vitamin D3 Hormone Replacement

Increased muscle strength by up to 20%, analgesic effect in acute and chronic pain, decreased fracture incidence with osteoporosis and osteomalacia, prevention of rickets, protection against cancers (colorectal, renal cell, breast, prostate, ovarian and others, including leukemia and retinoblastoma), fewer infections, improved glucose tolerance (protection against type I and II Diabetes), may protect against Multiple Sclerosis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. If vitamin Dis too low, it may cause coronary artery disease, heart failure, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation.

Potential side effects of Vitamin D3 Hormone

Taking more than 40,000 IU per day can result in calcium levels that are too high. (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 69, No. 5, 842-856, May 1999) These symptoms include anorexia, nausea, and vomiting, frequently followed by polyuria (urinating a lot), polydipsia (drinking a lot), weakness, nervousness, pruritus, and ultimately, renal failure. If vitamin Dis too high (>100 ng/dL), it may cause atrial fibrillation (Circulation, 2011; 124:A14699). Monitoring Vitamin D levels and adjusting the dose as required avoid these potential side effects.

Who should NOT use Vitamin D3 Hormone?

Those who have hyperparathyroidism, granulomatous diseases (such as sarcoidosis, granulomatous TB), and some cancers (oat cell carcinoma of the lung, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma) should only take Vitamin D under the direction of a knowledgeable physician.

Who might consider using Vitamin D3 Hormone?

Anyone who would like the benefits noted above and anyone with low or suboptimal Vitamin D levels.

How is Vitamin D3 Hormone supplied?

Vitamin D3 is available as an oral pill.
