A beer-y good Pinoy's vitamin-packed beer wins Gold Medal

Tomato special: vitamin P aka flavonoids
Besides being full of vitamins, tomatoes are also rich in flavonoids. There are about 7000 kinds of flavanoids and they used to be called vitamin P. Because of their anti-oxidative properties they would lower the chance of cancer in women. Flavonoids also sabotage the development of fat cells. This was discovered in a research by the University of North Carolina. Is there more good news? Yes, because the Ortho Institute in the Netherlands reports that some flavonoids reduce the chance of a heart attack immediately. But be careful, warn researchers, because too many flavonoids are also not healthy. They can impede the functioning of the thyroid gland.
Can Vitamin D Save Your Life?
For years doctors believed that vitamin D, sometimes called the“sunshine vitamin” because sunlight triggers the body toproduce it, was important primarily in preventing rickets (a softeningof the bones) in children. Once milk became fortified with vitamin D,rickets pretty much disappeared, and the problem of vitamin Ddeficiency seemed to have been solved. But according to Michael F.Holick, director of the Vitamin D, Skin, and Bone Research Laboratoryat Boston University Medical Center, who has spent 30 years studyingthe vitamin, “rickets can be considered the tip of the vitaminD–deficiency iceberg.”Today a lack of the vitamin has been linked to a host of othermaladies, including cancers of the colon, prostate, and breast;tuberculosis; schizophrenia; multiple sclerosis; hip fractures; andchronic pain. How can one vitamin play a role in so many diverseillnesses? The answer seems to lie in the fact that most tissues andcells in the human body (and not just those in the intestine

Vitamin D Levels of Obese Women
Low blood concentrations of vitamin D are associated with obesity.   Low vitamin D levels have been correlated with increased weight, body mass index (BMI), waist to hip ratio (WHR), body fat percentage, fat mass and fat-free mass. The mechanism is not fully understood, but Vitamin D improves insulin and leptin signaling.  The benefits appear to work in conjunction with calcium levels. I’ve blogged about this before, but optimal Vitamin D levels can probably only be achieved through supplementation.  Sun exposure can effectively raise Vitamin D levels at southern latitudes.  If you live above the midline latitude of the United States, you must supplement to achieve optimal levels.   Many authorities believe it takes at least 1000 IU of supplemental Vitamin D per day to effectively raise blood levels to the optimal range.

Researchers Say Vitamin D Might Protect Against Multiple Sclerosis
In recent years, research has suggested more health value from vitamin D than had once been thought.Vitamin D is produced naturally in the blood. Sunlight is a major source. It is also found in some foods. These include eggs, liver and some fish. Vitamin D is also found in pills. Vitamin D helps to increase levels of calcium in the blood. It helps build strong bones and teeth. It also helps in muscle development.It also appears to do more than just protect against rickets. That serious bone disease was the reason vitamin D was added to milk. Rickets is now rare in the western world. But it is still a common childhood disease in developing countries. Rickets can cause bone pain and weakness, teeth problems and muscle loss.Now researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston say vitamin D might protect against multiple sclerosis, also called MS.MS is a progressive disease of the central nervous system that affects about two million people around the world. There is no cure. M
Vitamin D and Childhood Obesity
Vitamin D deficiency is widely prevalent and contributes to insulin resistance. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased BMI, increased blood pressure, and decreased HDL cholesterol. Those with the lowest Vitamin D levels had significantly higher BMI than those with lesser deficiency. Humans are able to manufacture Vitamin D from sun exposure, but people living in northern latitudes along with widespread sunscreen use limit this process. Dietary sources are scarce and optimal levels can probably only be reached by supplementation or sun exposure. PMID: 17849744
How Vitamin C stops cancer...
No matter what you diet --- you don't get everything you need... you need to take additional vitamins and supplements. The conventional wisdom of how antioxidants such as vitamin C help prevent cancer growth is that they grab up volatile oxygen free radical molecules and prevent the damage they are known to do to our delicate DNA. The Hopkins study, led by Chi Dang, M.D., Ph.D., professor of medicine and oncology and Johns Hopkins Family Professor in Oncology Research, unexpectedly found that the antioxidants’ actual role may be to destabilize a tumor’s ability to grow under oxygen-starved conditions. Their work is detailed this week in Cancer Cell. Be sure to stop by for more later...
Vitamin F- The Scarlet Knights’ Big Weapon
Ton of talk in the humor blogs community about college football lately.  And by a ton I mean this post Joel wrote about Michigan’s little “whoopsie” last week.  Thought I’d tell everyone about how Rutgers (the skule two wich I maked attendance) has a new secret weapon… me.  That’s right, some vitamin F.  The Frogster. As we all know, football was invented by Rutgers roughly five hundred years ago.  The first ever football game was played between Rutgers and Princeton, and was won by Rutgers when John Rolfe, Jr. (who, after graduating cum laude, went on to marry Pocahontas) pitched the ball to Montezuma II (the first ever participant in a student exchange program), who took it around the right end for the winning score for the Light Shade of Grey Knights (they weren’t the Scarlet Knights back then, because, as you know from watching TV, color wasn’t invented until 40 years ago). That was the high water mark for the Rutgers footba
