    Vitamin D3 anabolic, calcitriol catabolic for muscle/thymus

    Androgens (DHT, T) Treat Prostate Cancer, Especially When Combined With Vitamin D

    I recently posted a study showing that vitamin D inhibits the deactivation of androgens, which results in a build up of strong androgens like DHT. https://raypeatforum.com/community/threads/vitamin-d-inhibits-the-deactivation-of-androgens.12411/ That study conclude that this effect of vitamin D...
