Their results were overwhelmingly positive.   "Ninety-six percent of the lung lesions were stopped with DHA after being triggered by the silica," said Jack Harkema, another study author and pulmonary pathologist. "I've never seen such a dramatic protective response in the lung before."   Lupus is considered a genetic disease and is triggered not only by inhaling crystalline silica toxicants, but also by other environmental factors such as sun exposure. Quartz is the most common, and most dangerous, form of crystalline silica and is often found in the agriculture, construction and mining industries where workers can breathe in the mineral dust. Lupus is the body's immune system attacking itself and it can damage any part of the body including skin, joints and organs.   Although it's still unknown exactly why DHA is able to prevent the onset of lupus, the researchers said this study provides scientists with a better model for looking at just how much DHA is needed to ward off the environmental trigger of the disease.   According to Harkema, the DHA could be changing the way cells, also known as macrophages, react to the silica in the lungs and somehow alter the immune system's response.   "What we do know is this study is a clear indication that eating DHA can prevent this one type of environmental triggering of lupus," Pestka said. "It can suppress many of the disease's signaling pathways, which current drugs on the market now try to target and treat."     Study offers real-world evidence of vitamin D’s protective effectsGerman Cancer Research Center, October 12 2022.  A study reported in the Journal of Internal Medicine provides “real-world” evidence of the benefits of vitamin D supplementation.  “Given the increasing importance of real-world evidence in determining the drug effectiveness outside of the strictly defined and controlled situations of randomized controlled trials, it is of great interest how the efficacy data of vitamin D3 supplementation obtained from well-defined and well-controlled clinical trial populations translate into effectiveness in real-world practice,” the authors remarked. “The primary objective of this study was to investigate whether the intake of vitamin D supplements (in the form of a vitamin D preparation or as part of a multivitamin product) is associated with reduced all-cause and cause-specific mortality including cancer mortality, cardiovascular disease mortality and respiratory disease mortality in the large UK Biobank, a nationwide, population-based cohort from the United Kingdom.” The researchers analyzed information from 445,601 UK Biobank participants. Regular vitamin D supplement use was reported by 4.3% of the participants and multivitamin use was reported by 20.4%.  Vitamin D and multivitamin supplement users had higher median 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels
