Vitamin D2 supplements may lower other vitamin D levels, study finds
Original: Vitamin D2 supplements may have an unexpected downside: new research finds they can lower the body's levels of another v
New research suggests vitamin D2 supplements may come with an unexpected drawback: taking them can reduce levels of vitamin D3, the form the body more effectively uses. The findings indicate that not all vitamin D supplements are equal, and that choosing D2 over D3 could unintentionally undermine overall vitamin D status. Health commentators are urging people to check which form their supplement contains.
Why now: Fresh research on a widely used supplement contradicts the assumption that all vitamin D forms are interchangeable.
