Sulbutiamine : by Ray Sahelian, M.D. - 0 views

  •  
    Sulbutiamine is a centrally acting cholinergic vitamin b analogue. One study shows sulbutiamine improve memory in rats. At this time I prefer using a combination of several b vitamins rather than relying on one vitamin b analogue. For more information on b vitamins or to purchase Vitamin b Coenzyme. Even better is to take a multivitamin that has a combination of the b vitamins along with a couple of dozen vitamins and nutrients. In most cases I think it is better to take a small amount of a number of different nutrients as opposed to a large amount of just one. Consider a very popular product that I have formulated called MultiVit-Rx.

    Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and haplotypes, interactions with plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and prostate cancer risk. Mikhak B, Hunter DJ, Spiegelman D, Platz EA, Hollis BW, Giovannucci E. Prostate. 2007 Jun 15;67(9):911-23. PMID: 17440943 DOI: 10.1002/pros.20570 RESULTS No association was found Between these SNPs or their associated haplotypes and all PC suBtypes except that haplotype 2 (A-f-B) with Cdx2 A, Fok1 f, and Bsm1 B alleles and haplotype 3 (A-F-B) with Cdx2 A, Fok1 F and Bsm1 B alleles compared to the most common haplotype (A-F-B), were associated with reduced risk of aggressive PC (high stage or Gleason sum 7; P = 0.02), Both with two alleles suspected of Being low risk. Carriers of the variant Cdx2 A allele who were deficient in plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (15 ng/ml) compared to non-carriers with normal 25-hydroxyvitamin D, had a lower risk of total and poorly differentiated PCs (Gleason sum 7) (P for interaction = 0.02 and 0.04, respectively). Plasma 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D deficiency (26 pg/ml) was associated with a threefold risk of poorly differentiated PC (P for interaction = 0.01) when comparing carriers of the Cdx2 A allele to non-carriers with normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. CONCLUSION In this population of men, none of the VDR polymorphisms studied was associated with susceptiBility to PC. Carriers of the variant Cdx2 A allele with low plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D may experience a reduction in risk of total and poorly differentiated prostate cancers compared to non-carriers with adequate 25-hydroxyvitamin D.

    Vitamin B complex is not a single type of vitamin, But a comBination of eight types of vitamin B, which is naturally soluBle in water. Though originally considered only one type of vitamin supplements, medical scientists then found that the vitamin B complex, in fact, eight vitamins together. Vitamin B complex consists of vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12 and vitamin comBination Choline, Inositol and Biotin.

Vitamin D deficiency is the cause of common obesity - 0 views

    Vitamin D deficiency is the cause of common obesity. Foss YJ. Med Hypotheses. 2009 Mar;72(3):314-21. Epub 2008 Dec 2. PMID: 19054627 doi:10.1016/j.mehy.2008.10.005 Common obesity and the metabolic syndrome may therefore result from an anomalous adaptive winter response. The stimulus for the winter response is proposed to be a fall in vitamin D. The synthesis of vitamin D is dependent upon the absorption of radiation in the ultraviolet-b range of sunlight. At ground level at mid-latitudes, UV-b radiation falls in the autumn and becomes negligible in winter. It has previously been proposed that vitamin D evolved in primitive organisms as a UV-b sensitive photoreceptor with the function of signaling changes in sunlight intensity. It is here proposed that a fall in vitamin D in the form of circulating calcidiol is the stimulus for the winter response, which consists of an accumulation of fat mass (obesity) and the induction of a winter metabolism (the metabolic syndrome). Vitamin D deficiency can account for the secular trends in the prevalence of obesity and for individual differences in its onset and severity. It may be possible to reverse the increasing prevalence of obesity by improving vitamin D status.

Separate effects of reduced carbohydrate intake and weight loss on atherogenic dyslipidemia -- Krauss et al. 83 (5): 1025 -- American Journal of Clinical Nutrition - 1 views

    Separate effects of reduced carbohydrate intake and weight loss on atherogenic dyslipidemia -- Krauss et al. 83 (5): 1025 -- American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Changes in peak LDL diameter (Table 2) and mass concentrations of LDL subfractions (Table 3) induced by each of the diets were reflected by changes in the proportions of subjects exhibiting LDL subclass pattern b (Figure 2). There were linear reductions in the prevalence of pattern b as a function of reduced carbohydrate intake after both the stable-weight and weight-loss periods. However, the slopes of these relations differed (P = 0.04) such that the magnitude of the reduction in expression of pattern b induced by weight loss increased in association with the percentage of carbohydrate intake. Conclusions: Moderate carbohydrate restriction and weight loss provide equivalent but nonadditive approaches to improving atherogenic dyslipidemia. Moreover, beneficial lipid changes resulting from a reduced carbohydrate intake were not significant after weight loss. Separate effects of reduced carbohydrate intake and weight loss on atherogenic dyslipidemia. Krauss RM, blanche PJ, Rawlings RS, Fernstrom HS, Williams PT.

An ecologic study of dietary and solar ultraviolet-B links to Breast carcinoma mortality rates. - Wiley InterScience :: Article :: HTML Full Text - 0 views

    An ecologic study of dietary and solar ultraviolet-B links to Breast carcinoma mortality rates. Grant WB. Cancer. 2002 Jan 1;94(1):272-81. PMID: 11815987 CONCLUSIONS It is hypothesized that animal products are associated with risk for Breast carcinoma Because they are associated with greater amounts of insulin-like growth factor-1and lifetime doses of estrogen. VegetaBle products contain several risk reduction components including antioxidants and phytoestrogens. The association with latitude is very likely Because of solar UV-B radiation and vitamin D. Alcohol modulates estrogen's effects on Breasts. Fish intake is associated with risk reduction through vitamin D and n-3 oils. These results are consistent with those of many case-control and cohort studies But should Be assessed in well designed cohort studies.

Current Impediments to Acceptance of the Ultraviolet-B-Vitamin D-Cancer Hypothesis - Anticancer Research - 0 views

  •  
    Current impediments to acceptance of the ultraviolet-B-vitamin D-cancer hypothesis. Grant WB, Boucher BJ. Anticancer Res. 2009 Sep;29(9):3597-604. PMID: 19667154 The ultraviolet-B (UVB)-vitamin D-cancer hypothesis was proposed in 1980. There have Been numerous ecological, oBservational and other studies of the hypothesis. There are aBout 14 types of cancer for which it seems to apply: Bladder, Breast, colon, endometrial, esophageal, gallBladder, gastric, ovarian, pancreatic, rectal, renal and vulvar cancer and Both Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Nonetheless, the hypothesis has not yet Been accepted By puBlic health agencies. Some of the reasons for this include a distrust of ecological studies, some mistrust of oBservational studies, and the existence of just one positive randomized controlled trial, an analysis of a vitamin D and calcium supplementation study involving post-menopausal women in NeBraska. Paradigm shifts such as this generally take time, in part due to opposition from those content with the status quo. In this paper, results of ecological studies in the United States using summertime solar UVB as the index of vitamin D production, which is highly asymmetrical with respect to latitude, and indices for other cancer risk-modifying factors (air pollution, alcohol consumption, dietary iron and zinc, ethnic Background, socioeconomic status, smoking and urBan/rural residence) are discussed in terms of supporting the hypothesis. These studies were not considered while other ecological studies were examined in recent critiques of the hypothesis. While additional randomized controlled trials would, of course, Be helpful, the current evidence seems to satisfy the criteria for causality as outlined By A. Bradford Hill.

    Higher levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are associated with a lower incidence of multiple sclerosis only in women. Kragt J, van Amerongen B, Killestein J, Dijkstra C, Uitdehaag B, Polman Ch, Lips P. Mult Scler. 2009 Jan;15(1):9-15. EpuB 2008 Aug 13. PMID: 18701572 DOI: 10.1177/1352458508095920 CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that higher circulating levels of 25(OH)D are associated with a lower incidence of MS and MS-related disaBility in women. This may imply clues to the pathogenesis of the sex difference in risk and to the nature of the environmental factors involved in MS.

N Engl J Med. 2006 FeB 16;354(7):684-96. Erratum in: N Engl J Med. 2006 Mar 9;354(10):1102. PMID: 16481636 Conclusions Daily supplementation of calcium with vitamin D for seven years had no effect on the incidence of colorectal cancer among postmenopausal women. The long latency associated with the development of colorectal cancer, along with the seven-year duration of the trial, may have contriButed to this null finding. Ongoing follow-up will assess the longer-term effect of this intervention.
