1) Objectives
The wrong mantra of overburdened doctors goes as follows: "Vitamin D leads
to a dangerous increase in calcium!"
What does science say? Where are the studies on this?
The Vitamin Delta Institute presents a study with relevant numbers of patients
(n = 257)
Do we observe an increasing number of patients with too high calcium at higher
vitamin D levels?
2) Method
Data sets from the years 2020 + 2021 + 2022
General practice, Lennestadt, NRW
Numerous patients with high-dose intake of vitamin D, under medical
instruction
Therefore, more patients with a "tropical" vitamin D level can be found here.
A "tropical vitamin D level" is defined as a physiological value, as can be
observed in tropical regions.
n = 257 with a serum calcium above 2.60 mmol/l
Vitamin D levels up to 200 ng/ml
Data pairs (X;Y) = Vitamin D level [ng/ml], Calcium [mmol/l]
Focused on values in the (alleged) problem range above 2.60 mmol/l
3) Results
A correlation between vitamin D levels and increasing calcium problems is
refuted.
There is no accumulation of high calcium serum values at high vitamin D levels
up to 210 ng/ml.
On the contrary: the linear regression curve even slightly decreases!
Therefore, there is not even a "trend" to increased calcium increase in the
range of vitamin D levels up to 210 ng/ml.
4) Conclusions
There are no objections to a vitamin D level up to 100 ng/ml.
For medical reasons, a vitamin D level up to 200 ng/ml can be tested without
risks for the calcium under professional guidance.
The parallel published study on creatinine also confirms its safety.
Warnings of "kidney damage" and "calcium increase" are therefore unfounded
and outdated at vitamin D levels up to 200 ng/ml.
Also outdated is the "upper normal limit of 2.60 mmol/l for the calcium in the
serum.
The time has come to leave the German special path, which was based on a
population deficient in vitamin D.
Other countries in southern regions (USA) specify 2.80 mmol/l serum calcium
as the upper limit.
