Vitamin D Receptor category

512 studies in Vitamin D Receptor category

Vitamin D tests cannot detect Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) problems
A poor VDR restricts Vitamin D from getting in the cells

See also: 47 studies in the Resveratrol category

It appears that 30% of the population have a poor VDR (40% of the Obese )
Several diseases protect themselves by deactivating the Vitamin D receptor. Example: Breast Cancer

The Vitamin D Receptor is associated with many health problems

Health problems include: Autoimmune (19 studies), Breast Cancer (22 studies), Colon Cancer (13 studies), Cardiovascular (23 studies), Cognition (16 studies), Diabetes (24 studies), Hypertension (9 studies), Infant (21 studies), Lupus (6 studies), Metabolic Syndrome (4 studies), Mortality (4 studies), Multiple Sclerosis (12 studies), Obesity (16 studies), Pregnancy (24 studies), Rheumatoid Arthritis (10 studies), TB (8 studies), VIRUS (36 studies),   Click here for details
Some health problems, such as Breast Cancer, Diabetes, and COVID protect themselves by reducing VDR activation

How to increase VDR activation

Compensate for poor VDR by increasing one or more:

Increasing	Increases
1) Vitamin D supplement  Sun Ultraviolet -B	Vitamin D in the blood and thus in the cells
2) Magnesium	Vitamin D in the blood  AND in the cells
3) Omega-3	Vitamin D in the cells
4) Resveratrol	Vitamin D Receptor
5) Intense exercise	Vitamin D Receptor
6) Get prescription for VDR activator    paricalcitol, maxacalcitol?	Vitamin D Receptor
7) Quercetin (flavonoid)	Vitamin D Receptor
8) Zinc is in the VDR	Vitamin D Receptor
9) Boron	Vitamin D Receptor ?, etc
10) Essential oils e.g. ginger, curcumin	Vitamin D Receptor
11) Progesterone	Vitamin D Receptor
12) Infrequent high concentration Vitamin D Increases the concentration gradient	Vitamin D Receptor
13) Sulfroaphane and perhaps sulfur	Vitamin D Receptor
14)Butyrate especially gut	Vitamin D Receptor

Note: If you are not feeling enough benefit from Vitamin D, you might try increasing VDR activation. You might feel the benefit within days of adding one or more of the above

Vitamin D blood test misses a lot

• Vitamin D from coming from tissues (vs blood) was speculated to be 50% in 2014, and by 2017 was speculated to be 90%
• Note: Good blood test results (> 40 ng) does not mean that a good amount of Vitamin D actually gets to cells
• A Vitamin D test in cells rather than blood was feasible (2017 personal communication)   Commercially available 2019
  • However, test results would vary in each tissue due to multiple genes
• Good clues that Vitamin D is being restricted from getting to the cells
  1) A vitamin D-related health problem runs in the family

    especially if it is one of 51+ diseases related to Vitamin D Receptor

+2) Slightly increasing Vitamin D shows benefits (even if conventional Vitamin D test shows an increase)+3) DNA and VDR tests - 120 to 200 dollars $100 to $250+4) PTH bottoms out ( shows that parathyroid cells are getting Vitamin d)

   Genes are good, have enough Magnesium, etc.

+4) Back Pain

   probably want at least 2 clues before taking adding vitamin D, Omega-3, Magnesium, Resveratrol, etc

Resveratrol is mainly found in grapes and red wine, also in some plants and fruits, such as peanuts, cranberries, pistachios, blueberries and bilberries. Moreover, nowadays this compound is available as purified preparation and dietary supplement. Resveratrol provides a wide range of benefits, including

• cardiovascular protective,
• antiplatelet,
• antioxidant,
• antiinflammatory,
• blood glucose-lowering and
• anticancer activities,

hence it exhibits a complex mode of action. During the recent years, these properties have been widely studied in animal and human models, both in vitro and in vivo. This paper is intended to present information published during the recent years on the biological activities and multiple effects of resveratrol.

Asked ChatGPT: What are the downsides to taking Resveratrol - Dec 2023

Resveratrol, a polyphenol found in certain plants and fruits, is often taken as a supplement for its potential health benefits. However, like any supplement, resveratrol can have downsides and side effects, particularly at higher doses or when taken in certain circumstances:

1. Gastrointestinal Issues: High doses of resveratrol can cause gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and other digestive issues. These effects are generally associated with doses higher than those achievable through diet alone, often occurring with supplement consumption 1  2
2. Drug Interactions: Resveratrol may interact with several medications. It can inhibit cytochrome 3A4, potentially causing interactions with a range of medications including HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (used to lower cholesterol), calcium channel agonists, anti-arrhythmic agents, HIV protease inhibitors, immunosuppressants, antihistamines, and erectile dysfunction medications. Additionally, its natural blood pressure-lowering and anti-coagulant effects might interact with blood pressure medications, anti-platelet drugs, anticoagulants, and NSAIDs like aspirin and ibuprofen 3  4
3. Estrogenic Effects: Resveratrol has shown both estrogen agonist and antagonist effects in cell culture studies, and its chemical structure is similar to synthetic estrogen agonists. This characteristic can be problematic for individuals with estrogen-dependent tumors, such as those found in prostate and breast cancers. These tumors have many estrogen receptors and rely on the hormone for growth. Hence, individuals at risk for tumor growth should be cautious about concentrated resveratrol supplements 5  6.
4. Joint Pain and Tendinitis: Some people have reported joint pain and tendinitis with resveratrol use, commonly affecting the Achilles tendon and other joint areas, sometimes accompanied by tingling and numbness in limbs 7  8
5. Other Potential Side Effects: These include jittery feelings similar to excessive caffeine intake, insomnia, flu-like symptoms such as muscle aches and cramps, blood in the urine, and, in rare cases, an increase in arthritis pain. These symptoms are not universally experienced and may vary from person to person 9.

It's important to note that while some of these side effects are more commonly reported, others are rare or based on anecdotal evidence. The overall safety and side effects can vary greatly depending on the individual, the dosage, and other factors such as concurrent medication use or existing health conditions. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement regimen, including resveratrol, to ensure it is safe based on your personal health profile.
