Vitamin D-brist ökar cancerrisk

En brist på vitamin D ökar din risk för cancer.

Forskare har upptäckt att näringsämnet – som skapas när du är i solen – uppmuntrar till bakterier i tarmarna som slåss mot tumörer.

En professor vid Francis Crick Institute, Caetano Reise Sousa, säger att denna upptäckt betyder att folk med brist kan få nya behandlingar i framtiden.

Han sa: “Vad vi har visat här var en överraskning – vitamin D kan reglera tarmens mikrobiom för att uppmana en speciell typ av bakteria som gav möss bättre immunitet mot cancer.

“Detta kan en dag vara viktigt för cancerbehandlingar hos människor, men vi vet inte hur eller varför vitamin D har denna effekten på tarmfloran.

”Det krävs mer arbete innan vi kan dra slutsatsen att korrigera en vitamin D brist har effekt för behandling mot cancer.”

Förutom att skapas när kroppen är i solen finns vitamin D också i mat som ägg, fisk och rött kött.
