A new\u00a0review by Grant et al.\u00a0has defined optimal vitamin D levels necessary to help prevent certain diseases known to be major causes of death, based on a review of the strongest evidence published to date. Diseases identified as those with the highest mortality rates included cardiovascular disease, hypertension, cancer, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer\u2019s Disease, and COVID-19.  Vitamin D Levels Required to Achieve Various Health Results  The findings, which are illustrated in the graph below, showed that optimal vitamin D levels needed for each outcome ranged from 25 ng\/ml to 60 ng\/ml \u2013 all of which were above the 20 ng\/ml vitamin level\u00a0recommended by the Institute of Medicine.    As the authors state, based on the evidence, \u201c\u2026given the multiple indications of significant health benefits from raising serum 25(OH)D concentrations above 30 or 40 ng\/mL as well as the near absence of adverse effects, significant improvements in health at the individual and population levels could be achieved.\u201d\u00a0 These results could be seen simply through achieving and maintaining optimal vitamin D levels! Different Requirements for Different Systems and Outcomes The\u00a0significance of vitamin D on disease prognosis\u00a0has been demonstrated by thousands of studies, on many different diseases or conditions, including breast cancer, prostate cancer and other cancers, thyroid disease, diabetes, and others. Each system within the body has its own\u00a0requirement for vitamin D\u00a0in order to function optimally. For example, while bone health may be optimized with a vitamin D level of at least 20 ng\/ml, immune health may not be optimized until a vitamin D level of at least 50 ng\/ml has been achieved, and the greatest reduction in breast cancer risk may not be seen until a vitamin D level of at least 60 ng\/ml has been reached.
