QUOTE BOARD “Although any painful condition can lead to the chronification of pain, it is particularly common with surgical trauma, lower back pain, and osteoarthritis.” “Compelling evidence has shown the potential of Vitamin D (VD) in exerting an influence on pain manifestation, thereby playing a role in the etiology and maintenance of chronic pain states and associated comorbidities.” “Vitamin D (VD) plays an important role in pain mechanism development, with emerging evidence suggesting it influences pain perception, inflammation, and nerve function.” “Observational studies indicate that hypovitaminosis D [Vit D Deficiency] is associated with musculoskeletal pain, myalgia, chronic lower back pain, and chronic headache. Additionally, appropriate Vit D supplementation, particularly in patients with VD deficiency, can enhance pain relief in several chronic pain conditions.” “In addition, Prieto-Alhambra et al. concluded that a target concentration of 40 ng/mL VD may prevent the development of aromatase-induced arthralgia, but higher loading doses are required to attain this level in women with a deficiency at baseline. It is worth noting that this threshold exceeds [by 200%!] the target of 20 ng/mL recommended by the 2010 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report.” Sadly, many of the Vitamin D studies, and recommendations, are still based on outdated, inaccurate, dangerously low doses of Vitamin D that do not match the human-genome determined requirements. Any study that includes, or recommendation that includes, less than 1000 IUs of Vitamin D per 40 lbs (18 kg) of body weight per day is invalid and ineffective. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Vitamin D deficiency is devastating to human health. It leads to chronic inflammation, chronic pain, chronic immune dysregulation, and plays a causal role in virtually every chronic illness including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, obesity, and dementia.
