"Conundrum of vitamin D and calcium supplement."
-The different perspectives of endocrine versus autocrine/paracrine function of vitamin D lead to significant disagreement among various professional organizations. The difference mainly arises from the target of 25-hydroxyvitamin D level and threshold effect of vitamin D. There is much less disagreement among various professional organizations. However, the relative importance of calcium versus vitamin D supplement will be discussed with emphasis of recently recognized adverse effects associated with calcium supplement.
