Vitamin D3: what it changed, and what it did not

One intervention, every measured benefit and result that did not improve. See who it moved for, where it stayed neutral or went the other way, and the next hypothesis Phoenix can validate.

How to read this

Observational research: real APOE4 carriers tracked over time, each compared with their own earlier self. Members chose their interventions, with no randomisation or placebo group. Everything else they changed is shown beside each result.

Key findings

Phoenix has measured Vitamin D3 against 1 exact outcome for APOE4 carriers. Three members raised their vitamin D level on a Vitamin D3-led combination: 28 to 102 ng/mL in 126 days, 32.1 to 65.8 ng/mL in 69 days, and 33 to 54 ng/mL in 120 days.
