“Some research suggests that microplastic exposure can change the structure of beta-lactoglobulin, a protein in breast milk that helps transport nutrients like vitamin A, making it less effective.”

“Researchers measured concentrations of vitamin D in four regions of the participants' brains and reviewed the participants' cognitive assessments. They found that higher brain concentrations of vitamin D were associated with 25 to 33 percent lower odds of having dementia or mild cognitive impairment at the last assessment before death.”

“The body has limited vitamin K storage capacity, so the body recycles it in a vitamin K redox cycle and reuses it multiple times. Naturally occurring forms of vitamin K include phylloquinone (vitamin K1) and a family of molecules called menaquinones (vitamin K2).”

“Vitamin D regulates over 900 genes in the body that affect the immune, musculoskeletal, and endocrine systems, among others. Previous research has shown that vitamin D deficiency may decrease athletic performance.”

“The study involved more than 12,000 adults who were dementia-free at the time of enrollment. Participants provided information about their vitamin D intake and underwent regular cognitive evaluations over a period of 10 years.”

“Interestingly, the association between low vitamin D concentrations and older brain age was only statistically significant for male participants. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is stored in the liver and fatty tissues of the body.”

“How taking an NSAID or even certain antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin E at the wrong time can diminish some of the benefits of exercise, such as satellite cell migration and improved insulin sensitivity.”

“The Endocrine Society defines optimal blood levels of vitamin D as 40 to 60 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). Unfortunately, approximately 40 percent of people living in the United States are vitamin D deficient, based on Endocrine Society standards.”

“Randomized controlled trial finds that high dose vitamin D supplementation (4,000 IU/day) for 18 weeks improves visual memory in healthy adults but low-dose vitamin D (400 IU/day) does not.”

“Vitamin D, a fat-soluble nutrient, is sequestered in adipose tissue, limiting its circulation—an effect amplified in obesity. Obese adults, for example, exhibit a 57 % smaller rise in circulating vitamin D3 after whole-body ultraviolet exposure and are more than half as likely to reach sufficient vitamin D levels than normal-weight adults.”
