Its primary role is to regulate and control calcium and phosphorus concentrations in the blood and support the circulatory system. An excessively low vitamin D3 level causes many chronic diseases, which may include heart conditions, disorders associated with deteriorating bone health and autoimmune diseases. Scientists at Ulster University (United Kingdom) have demonstrated that vitamin D deficiency causes the immune system to function abnormally.<\/p>\n<p>If we take vitamin D3 supplements, we must obtain vitamin K2 from food (fermented vegetables, cheeses). Vitamins D3 and K2 act synergistically with calcium and magnesium. Vitamins D3 and K2 in particular must go hand in hand, because the biological activity of K2 is weakened by a lack of vitamin D3. It turns out that vitamin K2 deficiency can be just as dangerous as D3 deficiency and may cause brittle bones or vascular disorders.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Lipid profile (cholesterol) &#8211; laboratory test<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Total cholesterol reference range \u2013 5.2 mmol\/l or less<\/p>\n<p>An elevated level may indicate kidney failure, an overactive thyroid or diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>A level below the reference range may indicate malnutrition, thyroid disorders or kidney failure.<\/p>\n<p>HDL reference range \u2013 1.0-2.1 mmol\/l.<\/p>\n<p>An excessively low concentration of good LDL cholesterol may suggest a risk of coronary heart disease.<\/p>\n<p>LDL reference range \u2013 &nbsp;3.5 mmol\/l or less.<\/p>\n<p>An elevated level of bad LDL cholesterol most often suggests atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n<p>Triglycerides \u2013 2.3 mmol\/l or less.<\/p>\n<p>An elevated level may result from pancreatitis, &nbsp;diabetes or kidney disease.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>ALAT<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reference range \u2013 85-680 nmol\/l.<\/p>\n<p>An elevated ALAT level may indicate glandular fever, primary carnitine deficiency, &nbsp;hepatitis (acute or chronic) or obstructive jaundice.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>ASPAT <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reference range \u2013 5-40 U\/l.<\/p>\n<p>An elevated level may suggest rheumatoid myocarditis, a heart attack, &nbsp;advanced liver disease, the breakdown of cancerous tumours or inflammation of the bile ducts.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Calcium<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reference range \u2013 2.1 \u2013 2.6 mmol\/l.<\/p>\n<p>An elevated calcium concentration may indicate overactive parathyroid glands, malignant tumours or a vitamin D overdose.<\/p>\n<p>A reduced calcium concentration may suggest vitamin D deficiency, magnesium deficiency, impaired calcium absorption, chronic kidney failure or &nbsp;disorders of parathyroid hormone production.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Phosphorus<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reference range \u2013 0.81-1.62 mmol\/l.<\/p>\n<p>An excessively high blood phosphorus concentration may result from kidney failure (chronic or acute), overactive parathyroid glands or acidosis.<\/p>\n<p>A reduced phosphorus level may be caused by diarrhoea, ketoacidosis, overactive parathyroid glands, extensive burns or injuries.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Magnesium &#8211;
