The biggest analysis in history: Vitamin D is completely useless for "bone protection"

2018-10-4 The top medical journal Lancet published a large-scale analysis paper titled: Effects of vitamin D supplementation on musculoskeletal health: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and trial sequential analysis.

This paper analyzes all published clinical trials on the efficacy of vitamin D bone protection. I sorted out its focus as follows:

1. As of 2-26, a total of 81 clinical trials met the strict analysis criteria, that is, they were random trials and had consolation control groups.

2. These 81 clinical trials cover a total of 53,537 subjects.

3. It was found that taking vitamin D supplements, whether high or low doses, had no effect on the total fracture rate, facial fracture rate, fall risk, or bone density (any part).

4. Researchers (three professors and doctors) suggest that existing clinical guidelines should be modified so that they no longer recommend that people use vitamin D supplements to maintain or improve musculoskeletal health.

You may also know that there are many doctors, pharmacists, nutritionists, nursery experts, etc. who are confidently advocating the versatility of vitamin D, and the "bone protection" can be said to be their most starting line. So, after seeing this latest article, do you still believe in the myths of vitamin D fighting cancer, anti-harm, preventing the elderly from being stunned, controlling blood sugar, lowering blood pressure, reducing fat, and protecting your heart? Please read my other articles:

"Vitamin D Fight Cancer? Scientific Certification

"Vitamin D Poisoning"

"American Medical Association: Pay attention to the harm of supplements"

Also, if you are confused, why do these "experts" encourage us to eat vitamins, why so many people are happy about vitamins or other supplements? Then read "Professional Knowledge, Interests and Vitamin Industry" written by Director Zhang Shuqing of Chang Geng University. I copied it the last paragraph as follows:

Whether you have the habit of taking vitamins yourself, behind this small pill is not just a presentation of the scientific knowledge of vitamins. Scientific researchers use it to achieve their own research, pharmaceuticals and doctors use it to improve their professional status, advertising operators use it to inspire consumers to buy products, pharmaceutical manufacturers thus establish a strong industry, and consumers also show their own health by whether to take vitamins. Under these circumstances, the story of Vitamin will continue. When we take Vitamin Pills after breakfast, it is a photo that scientific research affects our lives.
