The study below is the latest evidence that this remarkable nutrient may have therapeutic effects in conditions that most doctors consider completely unrelated outside of vitamin D&#8217;s realm (e.g. calcium absorption). As per the study below, vitamin D joins niacinamide as the only two substances known to be able to prevent\/delay development of Type I diabetes. Vitamin D may actually be preferable to niacinamide since the doses of the latter that were shown to have beneficial effects were in the 3g+ daily range, and such doses can cause nausea and stomach upset in many people, while the 50,000 IU of vitamin D weekly used by the study below have been repeatedly shown to be virtually free of side effects.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jes\/article\/6\/1\/bvab179\/6444198\">https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jes\/article\/6\/1\/bvab179\/6444198<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wcvb.com\/article\/type-1-diabetes-treatment-umass-professor-december-22-2021\/38596581\">https:\/\/www.wcvb.com\/article\/type-1-diabetes-treatment-umass-professor-december-22-2021\/38596581<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;Nwosu&#8217;s research shows giving <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">young Type 1 diabetes patients doses of vitamin D when they are first diagnosed slowed the progression of the disease, keeping them in what&#8217;s known as the &#8220;honeymoon period&#8221; of the illness.<\/span> &#8220;So <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">for vitamin D, which is a cheap and easily available product, to actually impact this phase is significant<\/span><\/strong>,&#8221; Nwosu said. &#8220;Classically, honeymoon periods last from three months to 12 months. However, there are recent studies now showing that they are actually able to pick up actually pick up C-peptide and evidence of insulin production in people who have had diabetes for more than 50 years.
