Vitamin D and heart attacks.
Vitamin D is a vitamin that the body can create your own. Through sunlight and foods from the first American Heart Association last month November 2009 Doctor Tami Bair reported a study of the interesting piece is the condition of lack of vitamin D is associated with mortality from heart disease and brain clearly his track. people in the city. Intermountain. The United States more than 27,000 people aged 50 years, both men and women were found vitamin D have a lower blood associated with coronary heart disease and brain as well as research Melamed ML in 2008 found that those who lack vitamin D. likely to die than people with normal vitamin D level.

The question arises in my mind the first two items are the Thai people living in the tropics this formula. Vitamin D Deficiency me to study the electric company employees. Was interesting that the numbers of Thais are no less vitamin D levels below threshold. Reason that the Thai people to avoid hot sun or genetics or whatever these people may be at risk of cardiovascular disease in the future.
The second was then that vitamin D supplementation. With supplements to prevent cardiovascular disease, silk What a thought. Many studies have supported the study, but most small. When the collection of eight reports together (Meta-analysis) found that supplements of vitamin D 1000 IU per day reduces the risk of heart disease. We are a larger study (called VITAL) population of about 20,000 people to answer this question directly that Vitamin D supplementation to prevent cardiovascular disease, silk Which takes several years to track the result. (This study includes the study of fish oil per day with a 1 g), the only information available at the moment is. People who have low blood levels of vitamin D before. Then the higher levels to "normal" will likely die from heart disease decreased or acute heart failure decreased.

 Pending the results of the study (VITAL), we may be vitamin D supplements in the recommended size is 1000 to 2000 IU per day, potential toxicity from too much vitamin D is, but very little. Especially in the recommended amount, called safe of course .. the good vitamin supplement can be eaten by various forms without the need to check vitamin D levels in the blood at all.
