Re: Re:Caution Vitamin D3 and autoimmune disease

[Guest guest]

It is possible that higher doses of taking D3 may not be so good for those who have an autoimmune disease, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, MS and RA. Important to have both 25-D and 125-D tested. Apparently people who have the above may have vitamin D dysregulation meaning they may have low 25D but high 125 D levels. In that case, high calcium levels can occur resulting in bone loss. The author Dr. Joyce Waterhouse claims that D dysregulation is widespread in inflammatory disease where there is bacterial involvement. The author does not recommend high doses of D for those who have high levels of 125D. So be sure to have both 25D and 125D tested! here is the link: http://autoimmunityresearch.org/transcripts/waterhouse_lax2006.pdf Madeleen
