Receptor and Activation
VitaminDWiki - The risk of 50+ diseases at least double with poor Vitamin D Receptor
VitaminDWiki - Vitamin D Receptor activation can be increased in 15 ways
Resveratrol, Omega-3, Magnesium, Zinc, Quercetin, non-daily Vit D, Curcumin, intense exercise, Butyrate Sulforaphane Ginger, Essential oils, etc Note: The founder of VitaminDWiki uses 10 of the 15 known VDR activators
VitaminDWiki – 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
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
Some health problems, such as Breast Cancer, Diabetes, and COVID protect themselves by reducing VDR activation

The risk of 48 diseases at least double with poor VDR as of Jan 2023 click here for details
Some health problem, such as Breast Cancer reduce the VDR
VDR 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 -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
