Low Vitamin D Sets the Stage for Inflammatory DeclineWednesday, April 22, 2009 - Byron J. Richards, CCNA recent study has shown that vitamin D levels in healthy women are inversely related to their amount of inflammatory TNFa. TNFa is a potent immune system signal that induces the inflammatory response. This information sheds light on the mechanism involved with how a lack of vitamin D leads to so many health problems. Interestingly, TNFa is also made in excess when you are overweight. This is because there are too many extra immune cells in the extra pounds of fat, and they also generate too much TNFa. Thus, a lack of vitamin D along with being overweight is a quick way to send yourself on an inflammatory downward health spiral. There has also been recent science explaining that a lack of vitamin D may adversely influence the metabolic health of your stored fat – meaning that you may not be able to properly break down fat when lacking vitamin D. It should be pointed out that the sun paranoia of the American Cancer Society has resulted in dramatic increases of many types of cancer due to a lack of vitamin D. Sure there are fair-skinned people who should minimize sun exposure, and every person should avoid burning. The sunscreen nonsense has gone wild. Enjoy the sun – your health may depend on it.
