A member asked:
What is the relation of vitamin d(3) and cortisol? (i'm having a hard time understanding pubmed, etc. articles.)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pub Med`: Is highly technical and is for docs. We now know that vitamin d affects every cell in the body. It has no direct relation with cortisol except that cholesterol is used, by the affect of sunlight on the skin, to make vit d and is also used to make cortisol.
