Hello everyone !! I hope you are doing well. I am glad to share some information about Vitamin D with you all .I hope you all will learn something from this post.
You may have heard the negative effects of too much sun exposure, but what about its positive side such as Vitamin D. Of course, too much exposure can be harmful. But that doesn't mean avoiding the sun completely. What we need is just a fair amount of sunlight to hit our body and voila, we have consumed Vitamin D to keep us healthy.
If you're wondering how important having Vitamin D, here are some health benefits:
1. Vitamin D can keep our brain healthy.
2. Vitamin D can help preserve insulin sensitivity.
3. Vitamin D can safeguard us against cancer.
4. Vitamin D can solidify our immune system.
5. Vitamin D can keep our heart healthy.
There may be other health benefits, which are not on the list. Whatever they are, we must be happy about it. We can now say that we're lucky to have sun around and some foods rich in Vitamin D.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

How to Give Better Lectures: Some Tips for Doctors
Vitamin d and smokers’ lungs
1. Vitamin D and Smokers’ Lungs
By
http://2stopsmokingtips.com
2. Introduction
• A new study suggesting that lung capacity may
deteriorate faster in smokers who have a
vitamin D deficit than in those with standard
vitamin D levels, triggered this post, in which I
want to examine the exact role Vitamin D
(popularly called the sunlight vitamin) plays in
smoking cessation and why it’s a ‘must-not-
do-without’ in the quit smoking journey. Enjoy
it!
3. What is Vitamin D?
• According to the Office of Dietary
Supplements, Vitamin D is “a fat-soluble
vitamin that is naturally present in very few
foods, added to others, and available as a
dietary supplement. Vitamin D is obtained
from sun exposure, food, and supplements”.
Unlike water-soluble vitamins (which cannot
be stored in the body), Vitamin D is fat-soluble
(can be stored in the body).
4. What is Vitamin D?(2)
• It facilitates the assimilation and conversion of
phosphorous and calcium. People who are
exposed to normal sunlight rays do not need
vitamin D supplements because sunlight
encourages adequate vitamin D production in
the skin. Five forms of vitamin D have been
uncovered. They are; vitamin D1, D2, D3, D4,
D5. The two forms that appear to matter to
humans the most are vitamins D2
(ergocalciferol) and D3 (cholecalciferol).
5. In Which Foods Can Vitamin D Be
Found?
• Very few foods in nature contain Vitamin D but it
can be found in the flesh of fatty fish like
salmon, herring, mackerel, tuna and fish liver oils.
Small quantities of vitamin D can also be found in
mushrooms, beef liver, cheese and egg yolks. Due
to the fact that Vitamin D is not abundant in
many natural foods, the vitamin is made available
through dairy products, juices, and cereals that
are then said to be “fortified with vitamin D.” But
most vitamin D – 80 percent to 90 percent – of
what the body gets – is gotten through exposure
to sunlight.
6. What Are the Benefits of Vitamin D?
• Vitamin D helps the intestines to assimilate
and breakdown phosphorous and calcium,
which help to maintain healthy bones, among
other functions.
• It regulates the body’s immune system,
thereby preventing auto-immune diseases (an
illness that occurs when the body tissues are
attacked by its own immune system), and
preventing cancer.
7. What Are the Benefits of Vitamin
D?(2)
• Vitamin D is also indicated for preventing and
taking care of rickets, a disease that is caused
by not having enough vitamin D (Vitamin D
deficiency).
• According to scientists from the University of
Colorado Denver School of Medicine,
Massachusetts General Hospital and
Children’s Hospital Boston, Vitamin D protects
against common cold and flu.
8. What Are the Benefits of Vitamin
D?(3)
• Vitamin D also lowers the risk of cancer. Research by
Cedric F. Garland, Dr PH, of the University of California,
San Diego, linked low vitamin D levels to a higher risk
of breast, ovarian, kidney, pancreatic and aggressive
prostate cancer.
• Garland and his colleagues stated that the frequency of
colon cancer in Canada and the United States of
America could be slashed by 50% if people took 2,000
IU of vitamin D per day, and that women would trim
down the prevalence of breast cancer by half if they
consumed 3,500 IU of vitamin D daily.
9. What Are the Benefits of Vitamin
D?(4)
• Another research conducted at the Medical
College of Georgia, United States of America links
Vitamin D to preventing obesity.
• In yet another study, sufficient Vitamin D Levels
were found to significantly reduce heart disease
risk. Vitamin D has been indicated for so many
functions and one can generally say: it normalizes
blood pressure, eases stress and tension,
alleviates body aches and pains by decreasing
muscle seizures and reduces respiratory illnesses.
10. What Are the Benefits of Vitamin
D?(5)
• Vitamin D also assists in delineation of the
body cells, improves insulin sensitivity, battles
depression, advances general skin health by
reducing wrinkles, and perks up cardiovascular
strength or vigor by protecting the blood
vessels with a lining.
11. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?
• Vitamin D is said to play a crucial role in the stop
smoking process. It is connected to dwindling
rates of many forms of cancer, including lung
cancer. In his book titled: “Quitting Cold: A Guide
to Quit Smoking,” Carling Kalicak states that
vitamin D is also good for bringing depression and
stress to the barest minimum. These 2
withdrawal symptoms (stress and depression)
manifest in the first few days of smoking
cessation. Kalicak further recommends that
smokers start consuming vitamin D supplements
one to two weeks before dropping off cigarettes.
12. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?(2)
• In a recent study, published July 19 in advance
of print publication in the American Journal of
Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine,
boosting Vitamin D levels was discovered to
render some form of protection to the lungs
from the effects of cigarette smoking, even
though researchers warned that, it won’t
prevent weakening lung capacity or smoking-
induced diseases, such as stroke, cancer and
heart disease.
13. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?(3)
• According to Lead researcher, Dr. Nancy Lange, of
the Channing Laboratory at Brigham and
Women’s Hospital in Boston, “vitamin D, possibly
due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
effects, could provide a small amount of
protection against lung damage that occurs from
smoking.”
• However, Lange stated that the effect was minute
and the most important way to develop healthy
lungs and body is for people to quit smoking.
14. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?(4)
• Prior to this study, several studies have
revealed that vitamin D helps strengthen lung
capacity. If you have been smoking for some
years, chances are your lung resistance against
pollution or smoke has been damaged.
Vitamin D can help your lungs get into better
shape.
15. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?(5)
• One of such studies was published in the
December, 2010 edition of Chest Journal.
Coordinated by Peter N. Black of the University of
Auckland, the study revealed that non-smokers
who were consuming little vitamin D had 35%
worse lung capacity than ex-smokers who were
getting sufficient quantities of the vitamin.
However, people who still smoke, regardless of
their vitamin D ingestion, had worse lung
function than either of these groups.
16. How Does Vitamin D Assist Smoking
Cessation?(6)
• The long and short of all these studies is that
taking Vitamin D and getting enough sunshine
exposure will help you maintain good health
before and after smoking cessation. So, what
are you waiting for? Get on the Vitamin D
bandwagon, but consult your Doctor first.

Vitamin D dosage.
