Three experiments were conducted to measure the effects of dietary vitamin D, phosphorus and calcium on zearalenone (Z) toxicosis in female weanling rats Experiments were of completely randomized design and were for 14 days. All diets were supplied to groups of 15 rats with or without 250 μg Z/g feed. Vitamin D was fed at 0, 555, 1113, 2225 and 4450 IU per kg diet. There was no significant correlation between dietary vitamin D level and feed consumption, feed efficiency, plasma phosphorus or plasma calcium. Final body weight was negatively correlated with dietary vitamin D for rats fed both levels of Z. Dietary phosphorus was supplied at 0.00, 0.23, 0.45, 0.91 and 1.40% and this resulted in curvilinear correlations between phosphorus and final body weight, feed consumption and feed efficiency. Plasma calcium concentration was negatively correlated with dietary phosphorus. A positive correlation was seen between dietary levels of phosphorus and plasma concentrations of phosphorus. Calcium was fed at 0, 0.25, 0.58, 1.00 and 2.00% but no effect of dietary calcium was seen on body weights or feed efficiencies, while feed consumption was correlated with dietary calcium but only for those rats fed Z. Plasma concentrations of calcium rose with dietary calcium while there was a simultaneous drop in plasma phosphorus concentration. The plasma changes were more pronounced in those rats fed Z. In all experiments, inclusion of Z in diets caused depressions in final body weight, feed consumption and feed efficiency compared to rats fed the same diet devoid of Z.

AbstractIntroductionThe effect of dietary vitamin D, calcium and dairy products intake on colorectal cancer risk is controversial. This study aims to investigate the associations between dietary vitamin D, calcium, dairy products intake and colorectal cancer risk among Chinese population.Materials and MethodsDuring July 2010 to December 2018, 2380 incident, first primary, histologically confirmed colorectal cancer cases and 2389 sex and age-matched (5-year interval) controls were recruited. Dietary intake information was collected by face-to-face interviews using a validated food frequency questionnaire. Energy and other nutrient intakes such as dietary calcium were computed on the basis of the 2002 Chinese Food Composition Table, and the dietary vitamin D intake was calculated according to the United States Department of Agriculture Food Composition Database. Unconditional multivariable logistic regression models were used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) after adjusting for various confounders, including socio-demographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, BMI, family history of cancer, energy intake and several nutrient intakes.ResultsThe energy-adjusted mean dietary vitamin D, calcium and total dairy products intakes were 5.69μg/d, 406.94mg/d, 4.02g/d for cases and 6.81μg/d, 468.21mg/d, 9.50g/d for controls. Compared with the controls, cases had a lower intake of dietary vitamin D, calcium and total dairy (P < 0.001). A higher intake of dietary vitamin D and calcium was found to be associated with 43% and 51% reduction in colorectal cancer. The ORs of the highest quartile compared with the lowest quartile intake were 0.57 (95% CI: 0.46, 0.70, Ptrend < 0.001) for dietary vitamin D and 0.49 (95% CI: 0.39, 0.61, Ptrend < 0.001) for dietary calcium. We observed a statistically significant inverse association of dairy products intake with colorectal cancer risk. Compared with the lowest tertile, the adjusted ORs for the highest tertile were 0.31 (95% CI: 0.26, 0.38, Ptrend < 0.001) for total dairy. The inverse associations of dietary vitamin D, calcium and dairy products intakes with colorectal cancer risk were observed in both men and women, colon and rectal cancer.ConclusionOur study indicated that higher dietary vitamin D, calcium and dairy products intakes were associated with a lower colorectal cancer risk.

Two factorial experiments were conducted to compare the dietary calcium requirements of two breeds of chickens and to determine the relationship between breed, dietary phosphorus level, and dietary calcium levels. Both experiments used two breeds of chickens (broiler crossbreds and Single Comb White Leghorns), two levels of added dietary phosphorus (0.18 and 0.36%), and six levels of added dietary calcium (experiment 1: 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.2, and 1.4%; experiment 2: 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, and 1.5%). Criteria observed included body weight (4-week), feed efficiency, mortality, and percent bone-ash. Breed and calcium level had a consistent significant effect on body weight, feed efficiency, and percent bone-ash. The breed × calcium interaction was significant for all the criteria measured, indicating that the Leghorn and broiler-type chickens differ in their dietary calcium requirements.

Our objective was to investigate the relationship between dietary vitamin D intake and serum concentration of vitamin D (25(OH)D) on changes in body weight, waist circumference (WC), and body mass index (BMI), and to determine if this relationship changes between obese and non-obese individuals at baseline and those who have or do not have 25(OH)D deficiency. This was a prospective study with a sample of 572 individuals aged 25–65 years, who were participants in the cohort study EpiFloripa Adults. Changes in weight (in kg), BMI, and WC between 2012 and 2014 were evaluated as outcomes. The main exposure was the dietary intake of vitamin D (2012), and the 25(OH)D serum concentration was secondary. When the analyses were stratified by the presence of obesity in the baseline, among obese individuals it was observed that those in the extreme categories of vitamin D intake had an average gain of 3.0 kg in weight, 0.9 kg/m2 in BMI, and 1.7–2.7 cm in WC. When 25(OH)D serum concentration were incorporated into the analyses, it was observed that non-obese subjects not having 25(OH)D deficiency had a mean reduction of 2.3 cm in WC. In conclusion, the increases in body weight, BMI, and WC were higher over time in obese patients with deficient 25(OH)D serum concentration, regardless of dietary vitamin D intake.

The relationship among dietary calcium, hypertension and vitamin D status currently remains unclear. This population-based cross-sectional study examined the association between dietary calcium intake and hypertension and the influence of serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in Japanese subjects. A total of 619 subjects aged from 40 years were recruited. Dietary intake was measured using a validated brief self-administered diet history questionnaire. Hypertension was defined as the use of antihypertensive medication or a blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg. Serum concentrations of 25(OH)D were used as the biomarker of vitamin D status. The prevalence of hypertension and low serum 25(OH)D levels (<20 ng/mL) were 55 and 32%, respectively. Dietary calcium intake inversely correlated with hypertension in subjects with serum 25(OH)D levels higher than 20 ng/mL (OR: 0.995; 95% CI: 0.991, 0.999) but it was not significant in those with serum 25(OH)D levels of 20 ng/mL or lower. Furthermore, dietary vitamin D intake correlated with serum concentrations of 25(OH)D after adjustments for various confounding factors. The present results demonstrate that the regular consumption of calcium may contribute to the prevention and treatment of hypertension in subjects with a non-vitamin D deficiency and also that dietary vitamin D intake may effectively prevents this deficiency.
