vit d3 82ng/ml and lowering alt, not on therapy


my sister just got tests results and the patern of hbvdna, alt looks inversely correlated with vitd 25oh>80ng/ml, this can be confirmed by time, she now has for the first time alt 40, hbvdna stable at around 200.000iu/ml, no liver damage 4.5kpa, hbsag around 18.000iu/ml

probably vitamin d is able to protect liver despite hbvdna detactable keeping alt 40, she will be checking fibroscan and hbsag next month

she has normal calcium as usual and creatinine and check every 3 months with vit d.she has daily vit d3 5000-8000iu

that is true but all fish with high omega3 is beneficial, populations on fish diets like alaska or graceland have almost zero problems with heart but i believe vit d has the most part

i will try to check also my father hdl, he was around hdl 40  and glucose 125 with vit d 11ng/ml
with d3 85ng/ml glucose dropped to perfectly normal around 90, first time in years, now i will try to follow his hdl too, i remember he was around 55mg/dl already with d3 85ng/ml but i guess it got higher with time
my father is also on omega 3 and fibroguard

regarding increasing HDL - have a look on this
http://www.colesterol-stop.ro/en/studiu.html

unfortunately, I haven't have a chance to verify this, but i will verify it and come back to the results (I write a email to the indicated Institute and wait for the reply)

of course this is very beneficial to liver and immune system too, so if anyone wants to try, just make sure to have enough proteins from soia and fish and very very few from meat and cheese

HDL 80 mg/dl

Posted on November 14, 2011 by Dr. William Davis
More and more people in my clinic are showing HDL cholesterol values of 80 mg/dl or higher, males included.

Think about it: Nationwide, average HDL for males is 42 mg/dl and for females 52 mg/dl. Even though these average values are generally regarded as favorable, HDL cholesterol values at these levels are nearly always associated with higher levels of triglycerides, postprandial (after-eating) lipoprotein abnormalities, and excessive quantities of small LDL particles.

HDL particles are, of course, protective and are powerfully anti-oxidative. Higher levels of HDL have been associated with reduced potential for cancer, as well as reduced risk for heart disease.

Following the simple regimen that we follow to gain control over coronary plaque has therefore increased levels of HDL to heights that are uncommon in the rest of the population, levels that readily top 80, 90, or 100 mg/dl. That regimen includes:

1) Elimination of all wheat–Yes, consumption of “healthy whole grains” sets you up to have lower HDL levels; elimination of wheat increases HDL.
2) Limited carbohydrate consumption–While eliminating wheat is a powerful nutritional strategy to increase HDL, non-wheat carbohydrates like quinoa, millet, beans, rice, and fruit can still cause high triglycerides that lead to reduced levels of HDL. Limited exposure helps keep HDL at higher levels.
3) Omega-3 fatty acid supplementation–Because omega-3 fatty acids reduce both triglycerides and blunt the postprandial rise in lipoproteins that can cause HDL degradation, HDL rises with omega-3s from fish oil.
4) Vitamin D supplementation–The effect is slow, but it is BIG. HDL just goes up and up and up over about 2 years of supplementation. Before vitamin D, HDL levels of 60 mg/dl were the best I could hope for in most people. Now 80 mg/dl is an everyday occurrence.

Other factors can also be used to increase HDL levels, such as weight loss, red wine and alcohol, exercise, cocoa flavonoids, green tea, and niacin. But following the regimen above sends HDL through the roof in the majority.

i was checking vitamindwiki.com for studies on vitamin d and found that vitamin d increases hdl, i found a link to this trial too and it looks it is possible to get hdl to 80mg/dl or higher.
we do know hdl is antiviral on hbv from a study presented at easl 2010 or 2011, high hdl like 80mg/dl makes also heart diseases/strokes/diabetes to zero and also centenarios are all found to have hdl>80mg/dl

http://www.trackyourplaque.com/blog/2011/11/hdl-80-mgdl.html

then i check my sister's and mine hdl and using vitamin d we both went from:
my baseline hdl before vit d was 43mg/dl, which is lower than normal and linked to fatty liver, metabolic syndrom and so on
my hdl got 65mg/dl  after getting vitamin d higher than 50ng/ml.i am also on omega 3 but never reduced  wheat or limited carbohydrate consumption

my sister was around 50mg/dl and now at hdl 75mg/dl
she is just on vit d, but not reduced carbohydrate consumption and not on omega 3

Happy to hear the good news about your sister.
I have just tested vit D3 level and hbvdna and HbsAg quantative this morning.
Vit D3 and hbvdna results will be ready on Monday and Hbsag quantity will be ready only two weeks later. I'll post it when I have them.
