Comment by Dianne Rees on June 11, 2008 at 2:22pm - An interesting study from the University of Michigan suggests that vitamin D may prevent heart failure from enlarged hearts (a risk if you have heart disease or poorly controlled high blood pressure). The studies are preliminary, but at least in a rat model of heart failure, activated vitamin D prevented heart muscle cells from growing bigger. Some information about the study's published here.
