Vitamin D is “Chemoprotective” in Lung Cancer…. but doctors still don’t get it
A recent study shows that Lung Tumors Destroy Vitamin D
The researchers stated that the chemoprotective effects of Vitamin D were being thwarted by the cancer and that they were investigating what the right level of Vitamin D would be to help fight lung cancer. They stated,
chemopreventive agent to improve patient outcomes.”
Well, what are they waiting for…. that day is NOW!
They are not talking about some far off drug that has not been through FDA testing or that is still in clinical trials. The “drug” that they have with “chemoprotective effects to one day help improve outcomes” is sitting right in the grocery store on the counter waiting to be taken.
This is not the first or only study showing Vitamin D’s anticancer and chemoprotective effects. In fact, there are dozens, if not HUNDREDS of studies showing the benefits of Vitamin D and cancer.
The reseachers have been saying it for years, if not DECADES- “TAKE VITAMIN D”!
But instead of using our existing knowledge of the right amount of Vitamin D to take and the already decades old technology of doing a Vitamin D blood test along with researchers recommendations of appropriate blood levels of the Vitamin, it appears that we are waiting for drug manufacturers to patent a “Vitamin D analog” much as they have done in the treatment of eczema.
But WHY are we waiting?
Doctors just don’t seem to “get it”. Doctors still think that Vitamin D deficiency is ‘rare’ and that you can get all of your Vitamin D if you eat a ‘balanced’ diet- what balanced diet? 20 glasses of milk or 12 ounces of salmon per day is there uneducated “balanced diet” to get Vitamin D- unless you happen to sun dry your own mushrooms or you happen to import your own Reindeer Meat- there IS NO BALANCED DIET THAT WILL GET YOU ENOUGH VITAMIN D!
In SEVERE cases, like in advanced osteoporosis, doctors MIGHT recommend 800 IU’s per day, the upper limit of the grossly outdated RDI’s of the Vitamin.
But the ‘new’ RDI ‘should be’ AT LEAST 2000 IU’s per day of Vitamin D, with higher dosages tailored to an EASY TO DO Vitamin D Blood Test. There are even Vitamin D blood test Kits that can be done right in your own home and MAILED back to the company!
But doctors still don’t get it….
At GrassrootsHealth, an interview with researcher Dr. Cedric Garland makes the claim that we can PREVENT 75% of breast and colon cancer deaths with Vitamin D Blood Levels between 40-50 ng/ml – yet doctors still don’t even check Vitamin D blood levels routinely despite reseacher recommendations that a Vitamin D blood test should be checked at every single yearly physical exam.
- Colon cancer
- Breast cancer
- Lung cancer
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- Periodontal disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- chronic pain
Even SKIN CANCER believe it or not- along with:
and a whole host of other “diseases of civilization” can be cured, prevented or treated to some degree with varying levels of Vitamin D that are KNOWN.
Check out this “Disease Incidence Table” that shows that researchers ALREADY KNOW what Vitamin D levels prevent what diseases. This is a Well Researched subject- studied by eminent scientists for over 20 years.
But YOU don’t have to wait. The technology and the knowledge is RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
Those in the know, KNOW the importance of Vitamin D and YOU can benefit from their knowledge.
Get your Vitamin D Blood Level Checked Today with In Home Blood Spot Testing Technology. It’s quick, it’s accurate and it’s virtually painless. Don’t wait until you get heart disease, diabetes, lung cancer, osteoporosis or simply periodontal disease to start taking Vitamin D.
