November 2007 follow up: "Is melanoma simply a vitamin D deficiency cancer?"
TO: All melanoma researchers, doctors, and patients.
The hormonal form of vitamin D, which is activated throughout the
body, inhibits the growth of human melanoma cells. (See Colston et
al. Endocrinology. March 1981)
The inactive precursor vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is cheap, easily
administered, and has no side effects. Its results would be known
within days.
So why isn't anyone trying vitamin D3 on advanced melanoma--even as a
last resort?
