 +==== Are There Concerns About Over-supplementing with Vitamin D? ==== 
 + 
 +There is a common misconception that vitamin D supplementation is safe at any reasonable level, or that if some is good, more may be better. 
 + 
 +  * It is clear that vitamin D intakes and serum 25(OH)D must be very high—perhaps 200-400 ng/mL—to cause the classic toxicity of marked hypercalcemia and kidney and liver damage. 
 +  *  
 +  * However, emerging observational data suggest that adverse outcomes may occur at much lower levels, such as in the 50-75 ng/mL range. These suspected adverse outcomes appear to include increases in all-cause mortality and increases in the rate of heart disease and some cancers.

 Mawer //et al.// reported that 1,25-D is such a sensitive indicator of the immune response that it can even be used to determine prognosis in breast cancer with bone metastasis.(({{pubmed>long:8989244}})) As the level of 1,25-D falls, the level of the innate immune system's ability to mount an immune response also falls, and the prognosis becomes less favorable. This seems to indicate that it might be possible to use the level of 1,25-D as one means of suggesting whether or not breast cancer treatment is effective if doctors know how to interpet the results. But, one should note that the patients in the above study had bone metastasis. Mawer //et al.// reported that 1,25-D is such a sensitive indicator of the immune response that it can even be used to determine prognosis in breast cancer with bone metastasis.(({{pubmed>long:8989244}})) As the level of 1,25-D falls, the level of the innate immune system's ability to mount an immune response also falls, and the prognosis becomes less favorable.

 According to some sporadic reports, cancer regresses following spontaneous bacterial infection.(({{pubmed>long:15663328}})) Competition between an ever-changing mix of microbes, and the variable attention the immune system pays to any one component of that mix, may explain the waxing and waning of different cancerous states.  According to some sporadic reports, cancer regresses following spontaneous bacterial infection.(({{pubmed>long:15663328}})) Competition between an ever-changing mix of microbes, and the variable attention the immune system pays to any one component of that mix, may explain the waxing and waning of different cancerous states.

 In the wake of the study, physicians [[http://www.theheart.org/article/1091359.do|contended]] that it is extremely unlikely that ARBs are associated with an increased risk of cancer, with one physician saying he has data that, if added to the analysis, would wipe out any cancer signal. (See also [[http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/724008|statement by Dr. Henry Black attesting to the safety of Benicar]]. Registration required.) Overall, they say, the media splash this paper has made could cause irreparable damage to the reputation of ARBs, which they consider vital tools in their armamentarium, and may unfortunately prompt many patients to stop taking the medicines, putting themselves at increased risk of cardiovascular and renal events. In the wake of the study, physicians [[http://www.theheart.org/article/1091359.do|contended]] that it is extremely unlikely that ARBs are associated with an increased risk of cancer, with one physician saying he has data that, if added to the analysis, would wipe out any cancer signal.

 +<blockquote> I found breast cancer in 1990, had a lumpectomy and follow up mastectomy with lymph node removal, as the cancer had begun to spread there. Similarly spreading, but in different organs, killed my mother at a slightly later stage of life. She had not sought treatment until too late. I have no doubt that prompt surgery and follow up radiotherapy and tamoxifen saved my life.  At that period there were no alternatives or understanding of the microbiome.
 +
 +Interestingly, I also developed a pre-cancerous site on my skin.  This was removed in day surgery.  Something appeared years later, about the size of a 5 cent piece close to the scar of the first. I was not alarmed, but watched it for any sign of change and reported to my doctor who was prescribing my Olmesartan according to the Marshall Protocol. She duly sent me to the skin specialist, who adopted a wait and see approach. (//There would have been complications in skin surgery on that arm because of the lymphoedema developed due to air travel after the lymph node removal//). After a couple of visits he took fine detail pictures of the changing blemish. One of these days I would like to go back and ask for these pictures, as a year later, the cancer had completely gone.  
 +
 +Pathology was unable to determine whether the diagnosis was Bowen's disease or Basal Cell Cancer.  This did not surprise me as it seems common in MP patients for tests to behave differently to the general run of patients with similar conditions.
