Recently, there have been a number of important studies looking at vitamin D and calcium supplements and how they help prevent cancer. All of these reports were based on the findings of a study that was initially designed to see if vitamin D helped fight osteoporosis. Yes, they found vitamin D helped fight osteoporosis, but the researchers also found that they reduced cancer incidence. Now, there is one problem. The numbers were very small so it’s difficult to draw any definite conclusion regarding recommendations or direct impact, but there was about a 60% reduction in cancers overall across the board. Again, it’s a small population. So, what’s my take? Obviously, more studies will be done, but it is clear that vitamin D will help fight cancer, at least to a small extent, and you get the added advantage of strengthening the bones.
