Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Vitamin D is not normally considered an antioxidant, however the following suggests that it should be considered because it’s role in reducing cancer risks and the progression of cancer suggests that it does a parallel action… “VITAMIN D is not normally classified as an antioxidant but as R.Ackley points out " vitamin D is one of the 2 vitamins our body produces under certain conditions (vitamin D is produced when our skin is in the sunlight - approximately 15 minutes exposure of arms to sunlight supplies daily vitamin D requirements). Drug research to help ALS sufferers is often based on the theory of a toxic buildup of glutamic acid in the brain. Glutamic acid needs vitamin B6 in order for it to be metabolized. B6 needs phosphorus to be absorbed by the body. Phosphorus needs Vitamin D or it can't be absorbed. All starts with vitamin D.
