What if my vitamin D is normal, but my PTH is high? | Chris Masterjohn Lite #29

Analia Camarasa asked this question on Facebook: Ever since you’ve mentioned PTH on your podcast we’ve been measuring it in the office. It’s nice to see that when patients come in on high doses of D supplementation their PTH is maximally suppressed, as it should be. I wish you could talk about the outliers briefly, normal D at 31 ng/mL and PTH outside of the range eating a healthy WAP diet, for example. Watch the video for my response.   Access the show notes, transcript, and comments here.
