- Overview Cardiovascular and vitamin D
- Cardiovascular Disease is treated by Vitamin D - many studies 39+ meta-analyses
- Coronary Artery Disease and Vitamin D - many studies 18+
- Cardiovascular problems reduced by Omega-3 - many studies 34+
- Arteries and Atherosclerosis and Vitamin D - many studies 71+
- Atrial Fibrillation decreased by Vitamin D or Magnesium - many studies 26+
- Statins and Vitamin D - many studies 25+
- Arterial Stiffness and Vitamins – only Vitamin D was found to help – meta-analysis Feb 2022
- Those raising Vitamin D above 30 ng were 1.4 X less likely to die of Heart Attack (VA 19 years) – Oct 2021
- Giving free vitamin D to every Iranian would pay for itself by just reducing CVD – Oct 2021
- Sudden Cardiac Arrest – 2.8 X higher risk if low vitamin D – 2019
- Peripheral arterial disease risk is 1.5X higher if low vitamin D – meta-analysis March 2018
- Heart attack ICU costs cut in half by Vitamin D – Oct 2018
- Cardiovascular disease 2.3 X more-likely if poor Vitamin D Receptor – Aug 2022
Cholesterol, Statins
- Cholesterol is needed to produce both Vitamin D and Cortisol
- Overview Cholesterol and vitamin D
- Statins and Vitamin D - many studies statins often reduce levels of vitamin D
- Statin side-effects are reduced by Vitamin D – US patent Application – April 2019
Items in both categories Cardiovasular and women are listed here:
- Coronary Artery Disease 2.9 X more likely in postmenopausal women if Vitamin D deficient – March 2020
- Metabolic Syndrome associated with low vitamin D in abdominal obese women – Jan 2019
- Half of Women Over 50 Desperately Need This Potent Nutrient (Vitamin D) – April 2018
- Heart Disease 40 percent more likely in women having poor Vitamin D Binding Protein – Sept 2017
- Coronary Heart Disease 3 times more likely if endometriosis before age 40 (vitamin D not mentioned) – March 2016
- ALL of the top 10 health problems of women are associated with low vitamin D
- Off topic: CVD: the primary cause of death in senior women, is increasing – Nov 2012

The relationship between coronary artery disease (CAD) and low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels has emerged. Postmenopausal (PM) women are at increased risk of CAD and vitamin D (VitD) deficiency. To investigate the relationship between CAD and VitD levels in PM women.This case-control study included 93 consecutive female patients aged 50 to 79 years old undergoing coronary angiography for evaluation of CAD and 119 age-matched controls. Serum 25(OH)D concentrations were classed as adequate (serum 25(OH)D: ≥20 ng/mL); insufficient (serum 25(OH)D: 10 to <20 ng/mL); and deficient (serum 25(OH)D: <10 ng/mL).
Major cardiovascular risk factors were also explored.CAD occurred in
- 67/127 (52.8%) patients with VitD deficiency;
- 21/66 (31.8%) patients that were VitD insufficient; and in
- 5/19 (26.3%) patients with adequate VitD levels.
Multivariate regression analysis suggested that a deficiency of VitD increased CAD (odds ratio = 2.891; 95% confidence interval = 1.459-7.139, P < .001).
VitD deficiency should be evaluated in PM women as a possible cause of CAD.
