It's worth peeling the protective layer scientists use to cover up potential methodological holes in practical relevance.  Studies usually make it to the SuppVersity  news if they are educative, informative, or practically relevant. In the case of the latest paper by Emilie Lindahl et al. ( 2020 ), one could - at a surface level - argue that all three criteria apply. But hey, this is the SuppVersity  so we're going unpeel the surface and look for cancerous growth in the methodology section 🤣...

You can expect more research updates like this one in 2019 on the SuppVersity... as well as other changes. And best of all, there's still time to let me know what you'd like to see / be changed over the course of 2019... aside from the overdue switch to a mobile-ready webdesign (#IRemeberThePromises), obviously. While all three studies in this research update have been published last year, they are by no means "yesterday's news" - not even for those of you who "know" the studies which investigated (A) the effects of vitamin D supplementation on the suboptimal testosterone levels of 100 hypogonadal men, (B) the initially very similar but eventually fundamentally different effects of green- and black-tea supplements on the obesogenic effects of high-energy diets, and (C) the beneficial effects of the co-ingestion of plant protein on healthy people's postprandial glucose levels. What's new? Well, study A doesn't really tell you that vitam...

Magnesium Could be in Charge of Your Vitamin D Levels: Supplements Lower High and Increases Low 25OHD Levels

D3 and Mg Supplements not mandatory w/ sun + balanced diet If you subscribed to the @SuppVersity Facebook Page, you will have read the news, already: "Magnesium status and supplementation influence vitamin D status and metabolism" ( Dai 2018 ) - that is both the title and the main results of a recent study from the Vanderbilt University  that is important enough to make it from the short format on Facebook  to a detailed SuppVersity article of its own - the article at hand ;-) The 25OHD-balancing effects Dai et al. observed in their 180 participants (aged 40–85 y) could after all do much more than point towards a reason why everyone and his mama seems to be D-ficient - it could force us to redefine what "optimal" 25OHD levels are - significantly below those many Internet "health experts" recommend.

Vitamin D -- Replacing D3 W/ Calcifediol in Fortified Foods May Cut D-ficiency Epidemic | Plus: High/Low Vit-D Jobs

Written by | published on

Many of these foods contain significant amounts of calcifediol (25OHD). It's thus not as if we would be exposing us to an unknown research chemical, bros. With vitamin D it is as with all the hype-research subjects: Now that everybody and his mama have published a paper discussing how awesome and important vitamin D is (mostly in the absence of experimental evidence from controlled human trials that would clearly support this "awesomeness", by the way), the number of studies on vitamin D starts to decline, while their quality (at least in parts) increases. In this Vitamin D Research Update , I will address two of these post-hype studies. Both with practical relevance in terms of the prevention and resolution of vitamin D deficiencies: Learn more about vitamin D at the SuppVersity How Much Vitamin D Shall You Take?
