Vitamin D Megadoses for Vitiligo: Hope, Hype, or Hospital Trip? (Ep. 72)

Vitamin D matters in vitiligo. Megadoses? That’s where things get interesting — and risky. In this episode, we unpack the hype around high-dose vitamin D, the Coimbra Protocol, and the small Brazilian study that made patients pay attention. We cover the possible immune benefits, the real safety concerns — hypercalcemia, kidney stones, strict monitoring — and why correcting a deficiency is not the same as taking massive doses. Promising biology. Preliminary evidence. Poor safety. No miracle-cure fireworks. 📚 Prefer reading to listening? The full companion article expands on many of the themes discussed in this episode.
