A new long term study shows us another benefit of fiber. Nearly half a million people who participated in a National Health Institute diet and health study over nine years reported their dietary intake.
The results showed that those whose diet had the most fiber had a 15 to 20% reduced risk of renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer). If you have a hard time getting fiber in your diet, one alternative we suggest is Jarrow Formulas Gentle Fibers. You can add it water or a smoothie and supplement your diet easily.

Ninety five subjects with atopic dermatitis and fifty eight controls had their vitamin D levels checked and scored their symptoms. They found that the frequency of infection was greater in those with lower levels of vitamin D.
They also found that once supplemented with vitamin D, symptom scores improved significantly.

A new study looked at patients with Crohn's and vitamin D levels. They then supplemented them over 24 weeks with enough vitamin D until they reached a blood level of 40ng/ml.
At the end of the 24 weeks, quality of life scores and Crohn's disease activity index scores improved as vitamin D levels were optimized. Vitamin D is being found to be involved in many health conditions.

There seems to be an age related decline in these levels and what consequences this can have on our health is being investigated. A new study looked at critically ill patients versus a control group and their CoQ10 status.
They found that across a variety of critically ill patients, CoQ10 levels were lower than in controls. The study authors believe there may be an association between illness and CoQ10 levels.
