“For decades, deficiencies in micronutrients such as magnesium and vitamin D have been linked to conditions such as depression and obesity, as well as their associated hallmarks of systemic inflammation.”

“According to animal research, even mild vitamin C deficiency may impact fetal hippocampal development, a part of the brain crucial for learning and memory. From the article: > "Even marginal vitamin C deficiency in the mother stunts the fetal hippocampus, the important memory centre, by 10-15 per cent, preventing the brain from optimal development," says Professor Jens Lykkesfeldt.”

“However, higher cord blood vitamin D concentration – an indicator of higher vitamin D exposure in the womb – negated this effect. These findings suggest that maternal vitamin D levels in women who have preeclampsia during pregnancy influence whether their children develop high blood pressure.”

“Patients with melanoma who received immunotherapy drugs were 65% less likely to develop colitis if they also supplemented with vitamin D. These findings were validated in another group of 169 patients, which found that vitamin D supplementation lowered the chances of developing colitis by 54%.”

“The study involved more than 12,000 cognitively healthy older adults. Researchers gathered information about the participants' vitamin D supplementation practices and whether they developed Alzheimer's over 10 years.”

“Severe vitamin D deficiency in people with COVID-19 associated with greater risk of death than those with normal levels. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is stored in the liver and fatty tissues of the body.”

“Vitamin D supplementation has been shown to improve working memory; however, the mechanisms that drive these improvements are unknown. The randomized placebo-controlled study involved 183 participants who had mild cognitive impairment.”

“1, 2 00:39:49 - Daily or weekly supplementation of vitamin D reduced the risk of acute respiratory infection by more than 50% in people with the lowest baseline vitamin D levels. People with higher baseline vitamin D levels also benefited, although the effect was more modest (10 percent risk reduction).”

“From the article: > In the younger children aged 7.0 to 8.2 years with no exposure to molds or dampness, vitamin C administration increased the FEV1 level by 37% [forced expiratory volume per one second]. In the older children aged 8.3 to 10 years with exposure to molds or dampness in their bedroom more than one year before the study, vitamin C increased the FEV1 level by only 21%.”

“Researchers examined nerve growth, synapse formation, and dopamine release in various dopamine-producing cells exposed to vitamin D over time. They focused on SH-SY5Y cells—which can mature into dopaminergic (dopamine-releasing) neurons—and other brain cells.”
