Vitamin D3 lowers cholesterol levelsVitamin D Supplementation Reduces Hyperlipidemia and Improves Bone Mass in Pediatric Obesity.
We investigated how vitamin D3 supplements impact cholesterol levels in pediatric patients suffering from obesity. The study involved 723 children over two years, with 283 receiving vitamin D3 and 440 on a placebo.
After closely examining the children’s cholesterol, triglycerides, and glucose levels, we found a strong relationship between these factors and their vitamin D3 levels. Following the supplementation, the group taking vitamin D3 experienced some notable improvements.
Specifically, we saw significant decreases in total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides in the vitamin D3 group when compared to those who received the placebo. This indicates that vitamin D3 could play a beneficial role in managing high cholesterol and improving overall metabolic health in children coping with obesity.
Our findings suggest that vitamin D3 is a valuable addition to strategies aimed at improving lipid levels and encouraging healthy lifestyles in young patients struggling with excessive weight. Overall, supplementing with vitamin D3 appears to offer an effective approach to tackling high cholesterol in this at-risk population.

Omega-3 acids effectively "cleanse" blood vessel walls from excess "bad" cholesterol, reducing the risk of high cholesterol and atherosclerosis. They enhance blood viscosity, normalise blood pressure, and bolster "good" cholesterol (HDL) levels. Moreover, these acids strengthen blood vessel walls and improve their elasticity. They contribute to the synthesis of important substances in the body, particularly influencing sleep. I found the quality and taste to be excellent, and I highly recommend this product.
