A high level of vitamin D helps prevent cancer. It has long been known that vitamin D regulates many metabolic processes in the body, in particular, it is necessary for the skeletal system.. But a new study by scientists from Spain and Finland proves that this organic substance plays an important role in the prevention of cancer.

Experts have found that vitamin D is a potential immunomodulator, its high level in the body supports the optimal level of calcium in the blood, affects the reproductive system and protects against the development of cancer.

Vitamin D performs its work with the help of the VDR receptor, which affects the expression of many genes.. It is able to prevent blood and bowel cancer..

The fact is that a low level of this vitamin can disrupt the differentiation of cells during their renewal, increasing the risk of their transformation into cancerous.

By the way, the addition of vitamin D does not directly reduce cancer mortality.. According to the authors of the work, the reason is individual sensitivity to vitamin in each person.
