| | Lots of shrimp plus vitamin C= bleeding? | | I heard of this some days ago, that eating lots of shrimps and consuming vitamin C at the same time would cause the bleeding. Not clear if it was internal bleeding.
The information said that some substance in the shrimp would cause the bleeding if it was mixed with vitamin C.Can anyone clarify this? | |

| | Spring, sun, vitamin D and health | | I just read that having enough vitamin D helps a lot to avoid colon cancer.
I quote: "The resulting cStudy participants with high vitamin D levels had 43 percent fewer digestive-tract cancers, 29 percent fewer cancer deaths, and 17 percent fewer cancers overall."
Sun is a good way to get your daily vitamins and you don´t have to get skin cancer while doing it. Put on a sun screen and go for a small talk immediatly in the morning or in the afternoon, when the sun is not so hard on you. That will be enough and you won´t have to recurr to suplements. Anyway, many foods have part of what you need as your daily allowance. But that usually is not enough. One glass of milk has 300 IU of vitamin D (aprox). What we need is between 1000 to 2000 IU (the highest levels are for grown ups.
Do you take care of having the right amount of vitamin D? How do you do it? Did you know that some countries where there´s little sun use ultraviolet rays at schools?

| | Using of Cortico Steroids in Children causes Vitamin D loss ... ALERT!!! | | Decreased serum vitamin D levels in children with asthma are associated with increased cortico steroid usesource: familydoctoronline.info/forumThere is little knowledge about clinical variables associated with vitamin D (VitD) insufficiency in asthmatic children.
When a research-group sought to investigate disease variables associated with Vit-D insufficiency in patients with childhood asthma and interaction of Vit-D with corticosteroid-mediated anti-inflammatory responses. They analyzed 25-hydroxyvitamin D serum levels in 100 asthmatic children to investigate relationships between 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and patients' characteristics. And determined Vit-D's effects on dexamethasone (DEX) induction of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1 and IL-10 in PBMCs. Corticosteroid use and worsening airflow limitation are associated with lower Vit-D serum levels in asthmatic patients. VitD enhances glucocorticoid action in PBMCs from asthmatic patients and enhances the immunosuppressive function of DEX in vitro.

| Vitamin D: new guidlines... Are you following them too? | | For many people living in the Pacific Northwest, physicians are now telling them to start taking a vitamin D supplement. Lack of sunshine is a serious matter here; in fact rickets and osteoporosis is higher than other parts of the country.Today, I saw Vitamin D formulations of infants under 1 year old; for non bottle-fed and/or formula fed children as well...Are you taking an additional Vitamin D supplement? I started two months ago under my Interist's urge and my mood and muscles feel much better. | |
