Vitamin D deficient diseases and magnesium deficient vitamin D resistant diseases

Vitamin D deficient diseases and magnesium deficient vitamin D resistant diseases

A vitamin D deficiency was first recognized clinically in rickets (1920s).
Many decades later magnesium deficient vitamin D resistant rickets was described.
Magnesium-dependent vitamin-D-resistant rickets (1974)
[pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Now the spectrum of vitamin D deficient diseases has markedly expanded beyond rickets.

Now compare the above with the expanding list of just magnesium deficient CNS diseases. There seems to be a lot of overlap.

Looks like there’s a very significant subset of vitamin D deficient/refractory diseases, which owe their severity to an additional magnesium deficiency.
Interest in vitamin D is ramping up.

And it's not exactly a secret that it takes Mg to make vitamin D.

Unfortunately even the spate of recent papers connecting vitamin D deficiency with severity of COVID-19 rarely mention magnesium deficiency.
And there’s a growing number of people that appear to be both vitamin D deficient and Mg deficient.

None of these recent articles touting the benefits of vitamin D even mention magnesium.

Here's an example of how knowledge is being suppressed and fear sown in its stead by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence)
Vitamin D supplementation for preventing intensive care admissions in people with COVID-19 associated pneumonia (Sept 2020)
[arms.evidence.nhs.uk]
NICE (UK) is not nice; more like CRAP (Can't Really Analyze Pneumonia)
There’s a ton of literature out there praising the benefits of vitamin D in many diseases and only a few articles that are neutral. Could it be that the benefits of D in all these studies would have been even greater had they excluded the magnesium deficient vitamin D resistant?

President Trump is being given Vit. D, zinc and Melatonin, good to hear. Hopefully he will recover fully.
