Powerful Medicine: Vitamin D is the inside scoop on what has become a very real health crisis around the world.
Want to know how vitamin D operates in the body and what all the hype is about? Or what happens when your vitamin D levels are inadequate and therefore unavailable for protection? Powerful Medicine explains all that and more. We delve into the politics of sunshine, what a RDA really means and why we're seeing skyrocketing cases of cancer, MS, diabetes, osteoporosis, seasonal affective disorder, autism, hypertension and more. We'll also explain the complex functioning of vitamin D in the body and how it's not really a vitamin at all, but a hormone that acts on over 200 genes in the body. Don't worry - there's easy to understand images that explain all this scientific mumbo jumbo. And Part II is entirely devoted to specific conditions and diseases that are linked to vitamin D deficiency such as breast cancer, lung cancer, depression and bone diseases. Giving concrete solutions for optimal vitamin D levels and supportive naturopathic remedies based on getting your body back in balance.
And what can healthy levels of vitamin D do for you? To start with, activated vitamin D can: halt tumor growth and reduce tumor size, improve heart health by regulating blood pressure, improve insulin production and regulate blood sugar levels, improve chances of survival from cancer related surgery, keep bones healthy by regulating calcium levels, improve mental health and provide protection from the common cold, viruses and much, much more.
