  • Need at least 80 ng of vitamin D if have chronic kidney disease – May 2012
  • Adding Vitamin decreased kidney deaths by 4x – Dec 2010
    It is amazing that such excellent results were buried in the paper. They were not in the title nor abstract.
    This is the result of about 10 trials with about 5,000 kidney disease patients.
    Note: some of the trials were terminated as they felt it morally wrong to not give vitamin D to all of the Kidney patients
  • All items in Kidney and Vitamin D 82 items as of May 2012
  • Overview Kidney and vitamin D which had the following summary May 2012
    FACT: Kidney is one of the 2 ways that vitamin D is turned into something that body can use; active vitamin D = Calcitriol
    FACT: When the Kidney has problems, there is less Calcitriol available in the body
    FACT: When the Kidney has problems, there is increased death due to many factors - many of which are associated with lack of Calcitriol
    FACT: There are many on-going intervention clinical trials trying to determine how much of what kind of vitamin D is needed to correct the problem
    FACT: Vitamin D intervention has yet been proven to help health of people with kidney problems - with random controlled trials
    FACT: Taking extra Vitamin D, in various forms, does not cause health problems - even for those with poor kidneys
    Suggestion: Increase vitamin D getting into body now - and increase co-factors so that the vitamin D can be better used
