Dr. Jamal Shaaban, consultant cardiologist and former head of the Heart Institute, published a post on his personal Facebook page regarding Vitamin D.
Shaaban said: Is it a vitamin or a hormone? In fact, it is closer to a hormone because it is synthesized in the skin from cholesterol, stimulated by sunlight.
Shaaban continued, “If exposure to the sun was provided for sufficient periods, not only of the face and hands, but of a larger area of the skin (the sun is both beneficial and harmful), with the food containing eggs, dairy, and fish, there would be no need to take vitamin preparations.”
The appropriate rate is no less than 30 nanograms per milliliter, and recently some studies aim to reach a rate of 50 nanograms per milliliter.
The analysis must be performed in a reliable laboratory because the error rates in its measurement are very high.
