Many diseases such as Cancers such as Breast, and Viruses such as COVID, have learned to deactivate the VDR to protect themselves.

Vitamin D Receptor category has the following
541 studies in Vitamin D Receptor categoryVitamin 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
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 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 |
| 15) Berberine | 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

- Getting Vitamin D into your blood and cells
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 - 100 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.
5) Back Pain
probably want at least 2 clues before taking adding vitamin D, Omega-3, Magnesium, Resveratrol, etc- The founder of VitaminDWiki took action with clues #3&5
