Overview Diabetes and vitamin D contains the following summary
- Diabetes is 5X more frequent far from the equator
- Children getting 2,000 IU of vitamin D are 8X less likely to get Type 1 diabetes
- Obese people get less sun / Vitamin D - and also vitamin D gets lost in fat
- Sedentary people get less sun / Vitamin D
- Worldwide Diabetes increase has been concurrent with vitamin D decrease and air conditioning
- Elderly get 4X less vitamin D from the same amount of sun
Elderly also spend less time outdoors and have more clothes on - All items in category Diabetes and Vitamin D
514 items: both Type 1 and Type 2 Vitamin D appears to both prevent and treat diabetes
- Appears that >2,000 IU will Prevent
- Appears that >4,000 IU will Treat , but not cure
- Appears that Calcium and Magnesium are needed for both Prevention and Treatment
- which are just some of the vitamin D cofactors

Vitamin D Receptor category has the following
Note that T2 diabetes has a similar increased risk464 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 cells44 studies in the Resveratrol category It appears that 30% of the population have a poor VDR (40% of the Obese )
Health problems include: Autoimmune (
Several diseases protect themselves by deactivating the Vitamin D receptor.Example: Breast Cancer

The Vitamin D Receptor is associated with many health problems17 studies), Breast Cancer ( 20 studies), Colon Cancer ( 13 studies), Cardiovascular ( 22 studies), Cognition ( 16 studies), Diabetes ( 22 studies), Hypertension ( 6 studies), Infant ( 18 studies), Lupus ( 6 studies), Metabolic Syndrome ( 3 studies), Mortality ( 4 studies), Multiple Sclerosis ( 11 studies), Obesity ( 15 studies), Pregnancy ( 22 studies), Rheumatoid Arthritis ( 10 studies), TB ( 8 studies), VIRUS ( 30 studies), Click here for details
Some health problems, such as Breast Cancer and Diabetes, protect themselves by reducing VDR activation
Suspect that SAR-COV-2 also protects itself from Vitamin D
55 health problems associated with poor VDR
A poor VDR is associated with the risk of 55 health problems click here for details
The risk of 45 diseases at least double with poor VDR as of Nov 2022 click here for details
Some health problem, such as Breast Cancer reduce the VDRVDR at-home test $29 - results not easily understood in 2016
There are hints that you may have inherited a poor VDR
How to increase VDR activation
Compensate for poor VDR by increasing one or more:Increasing Increases 1) Vitamin D supplement Sun
Ultraviolet -BVitamin D in the blood
and thus in the cells2) Magnesium Vitamin D in the blood
AND in the cells3) 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 ?,
etc10) Essential oils e.g. ginger, curcumin Vitamin D Receptor 11) Progesterone Vitamin D Receptor 12) Infrequent high concentration Vitamin D
Increases the concentration gradientVitamin 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
Far healthier and stronger at age 72 due to supplements Includes 6 supplements that help the VDR
Increased risk associated with a poor Vitamin D Receptor
Note: Some diseases reduce VDR activation
those with a * are known to decrease activation

There are studies evluating FokI, BsmI, ApaI and TaqI polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor gene and susceptibility to DM1 (type 1 diabetes mellitus) with controversial results. This present study aims to investigate the association between FokI, ApaI, TaqI and BsmI polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and DM1 in children.
METHODS:
A literature search was performed using Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane and Pubmed. Studies were included in the study if at least one of FokI, ApaI, TaqI and BsmI polymorphisms was determined and outcome was DM1 at pediatric age. Data were pooled in a random effects logistic regression model and reported with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).
RESULTS:
A total of 9 studies comprising 1053 patients and 1017 controls met the study inclusion criteria. The pooled odds ratios of the FokI, ApaI, TaqI and BsmI polymorphisms were combined and calculated. Forest plots and funnel plots of the odds ratio value distributions were drawn. Our meta-analysis has demonstrated statistically significant associations between DM1 and VDR genotypes, BsmIBB(P < 0.05), BsmIBb, (P < 0.05), BsmIbb(P < 0.05), TaqITT( P< 0.05) and TaqItt (P < 0.05) in children.
CONCLUSION:
The results indicated that BsmIBB, BsmIBb and TaqItt polymorphisms were associated with an increased risk of DM1, while BsmIbb and TaqITT had protective effect for DM1 in children.
