“One study showed women with blood levels over 32 ng/ml had a 6.2% reduction in sleep quality (you would know if this happened). Another shows that triglycerides increased 13 mg/dL and total cholesterol went up by 3.6 mg/dL when normalizing overweight people with 23.5 ng/mL to 30.6 ng/mL.”
Do you happen to have links to either study (or both)?
TIA!
A doctor wanted her clients to have a vitamin d level of 60 ng/ml. It caused a vitamin b deficiency.
She writes:
Improvements in sleep achieved by a vitamin D level of 60–80 ng/ml began to wane at the end of two years, and there were an increasing number of patients with new complaints of pain. References were found linking B5 deficiency to insomnia and pain.
Based on studies reporting the use of B5 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis the original dose of B5 that was tried was 400 mg/day. That dose produced unexpected complaints of immediate agitation and insomnia in approximately 30 patients, so a lower dose, of B100 (100 mg B5) or B50 (50 mg B5) was recommended. The addition of B100 to the vitamin D regimen produced an improvement in both sleep and pain within days, suggesting that a vitamin B deficiency state had somehow been induced by the D supplementation and was now responsible for worsening sleep and pain.

The body uses magnesium to process pantothenic acid. Maybe consuming a lot of pantothenic acid can cause a magnesium deficiency.
