There is a lot of data on Vitamin D. The most recent comorbidity that I have come across is how Vitamin D relates to hypertension. Interestingly I came across this after someone close to me was started on Statins with their other prescription stack. I was aware that CoQ10 was depleted from this drug and that Vitamin D was also depleted from lowering cholesterol. But a side effect of reduced vitamin D levels is atherosclerosis. I was unaware of this steroids role in calcium metabolism and escorting it to the correct areas. If one is “diagnosed” with hypertension, it would be good to look at the Vitamin D levels as well as K2 these seem to work synergistically together. I think that I would adjust my levels of these two first then look at calcium intake before any pharmaceutical options.
