A current study has demonstrated that taking vitamin d and calcium after reaching menopause can reduce the cholesterol levels amongst women. Much of that outcome has been tied to consuming greater levels of vitamin D, based on a study made by the Women's Health Institute or the WHI, which is by The North American Menopause Society or NAMS. The question of whether it's calcium alone or vitamin D, or perhaps the mix of both, is responsible for improving cholesterol levels has been discussed for several years, a recent study made by the NAMS board of trustees hoped to study the impacts of Vitamin D, and by doing so, settle these questions once and for all. The women within the WHI trial were made to take either a supplement containing 1,000 mg of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin D3 or a placebo. This analysis took a look at the relationship between taking supplements and levels of vitamin D and cholesterol in some 600 of the women who had both their cholesterol levels and their vitamin D levels evaluated. It was uncovered that the women who took the calcium and vitamin D supplements were twice as probable to have vitamin D levels of at least 30 ng/mL, which are the typical vitamin D levels according to the Institute of Medicine. This was in contrast to the women who took the placebo. Supplement users were also found to have lower levels of low-density lipoprotein, otherwise called the "bad" cholesterol, that were in between 4 and 5 points lower than those who took the placebo. In addition to these discoveries, the researchers discovered that among the supplement users, those with greater blood levels of vitamin D had greater levels of high-density lipoprotein, which is the "good" cholesterol, and lower levels of triglycerides, although for the triglycerides to be lower, blood levels of vitamin D needed to reach a limit of about 15 ng/mL and lower. According to the authors, though these findings do not immediately indicate that consuming calcium or vitamin D translates to a reliable decline in the rate of cardiovascular failure, or whether vitamin D insufficiency could be a factor in greater levels of bad cholesterol, the authors do think that the study's results is a great reminder that women at greater threat for vitamin D insufficiency need to consider taking a quality calcium and vitamin D supplement such as our PLAINTUM Series Vitamin D3, which provides 5,000 IU of vitamin D in each pill. "The results of this study should motivate much more women to be conscientious about their calcium and vitamin D intake-- an easy and safe method to improve health. One action can lead to multiple benefits!" says NAMS Executive Director Margery Gass, MD. To celebrate the results of the study, for a limited time, PacificCoast NutriLabs is offering their [http://www.amazon.com/5000-VITAMIN-Supplement-preservatives-cholecalciferol/dp/B00EV8AS86 PLATINUM Series Vitamin D3 for 40% off].
