 The levels of each of the vitamin D metabolites are affected by a complex network of feedback mechanisms involving multiple enzymes and receptors, indicating vitamin D is regulated more like a steroid than a nutrient. The levels of each of the vitamin D metabolites are affected by a complex network of feedback mechanisms involving multiple enzymes and receptors, indicating vitamin D is regulated more like a steroid than a nutrient.
  
-In the published literature, researchers sometimes distinguish between "steroid" and "secosteroid," but not always.(({{pubmed>long:10052453}}))(({{pubmed>long:12528991}}))+In the published literature, researchers sometimes distinguish between "steroid" and "secosteroid," but not always.(({{pubmed>long:10052453}})) (({{pubmed>long:12528991}}))
  
 This failure to discriminate is less an indication of sloppy research and more a testament to how vitamin D behaves. The vitamins D act very much like steroids, binding nuclear receptors and modulating the immune response. Not only that, there's growing evidence that vitamin D causes adverse side effects like chronic disease over the long term just like anabolic steroids and [[home:othertreatments::corticosteroids|corticosteroids]]. This failure to discriminate is less an indication of sloppy research and more a testament to how vitamin D behaves.
