The new analysis, published online this week in Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology, found that although low vitamin D levels are associated with higher risk of a wide variety of diseases, supplementation had little impact on disease occurrence.

In other words, low vitamin D levels are an effect — not a cause — of conditions including cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, depression, and certain cancers.

According to the team of researchers at the International Prevention Research Institute in Lyon, France, low vitamin D levels are likely caused by disease-related inflammation. Inflammation is associated with a wide range of diseases, which would explain why vitamin D deficiency appears linked to so many conditions.

In their report, the researchers went so far as to advise against supplementation, calling it an “ill-advised practice.”

• The IDEAL Way to Optimize Your Vitamin D Levels
• While this article is focused on the two types of oral vitamin D supplementation, it's important to realize that the IDEAL way to optimize your vitamin D levels is through appropriate sun or safe tanning bed exposure. While your skin does create vitamin D3 in response to sun light, which is theoretically the same as the D3 you get from an oral supplement, there's cause to believe that the vitamin D created from sun exposure may have additional health benefits, and here's why:
When you expose your skin to the sun, your skin also synthesizes high amounts of cholesterol sulfate, which is very important for heart and cardiovascular health. In fact, according to research by Dr. Stephanie Seneff, high LDL and subsequent heart disease may in fact be a symptom of cholesterol sulfate deficiency. Sulfur deficiency also promotes obesity and related health problems like diabetes
When exposed to sunshine, your skin also synthesizes vitamin D3 sulfate. This form of vitamin D is water soluble, unlike oral vitamin D3 supplements, which is unsulfated. The water-soluble form can travel freely in your bloodstream, whereas the unsulfated form needs LDL (the so-called "bad" cholesterol) as a vehicle of transport. According to Dr. Stephanie Seneff, there's reason to believe that many of the profound benefits of vitamin D are actually due to the vitamin D sulfate. As a result, she suspects that the oral non-sulfated form of vitamin D might not provide all of the same benefits, because it cannot be converted to vitamin D sulfate
You cannot overdose when getting your vitamin D from sun exposure, as your body has the ability to self-regulate and only make what it needs

• A Special Interview with Carole Baggerly

• Every single one of them agreed. Every one of them, we now have 40 on this panel, that the focus should be on the serum level not the dosage. The reason being, if you focus on the serum level, you can have people take whatever it takes to get there. It does take something different for everybody. Everybody’s human body just responds differently. So we had our message. Our message for entire campaign was get your serum level to 40 to 60 nanograms per milliliter. That’s it. That’s really it.

• DM: I interviewed a Dr. Stephanie Seneff – you may or may not be familiar with her. She’s a full professor out at MIT for the last three decades and has recently become passionate about health and vitamin D and cholesterol. She theorizes that there maybe this interaction with the sun and vitamin D and sulfate and that when you get the vitamin D generated by UVB exposure, it actually interacts with the sulfate in your skin and forms vitamin D sulfate.
• DM: It’s a whole different mechanism of action which is not formed when you swallow it.
