> I believe the capability of humans to synthesize sufficient amounts of D3 under many circumstances makes it a hormone Its molecular structure precursor is cholesterol, a steroid hormone which by convention is a molecule with 3 hexanes attached to pentane and an R group, it under goes a series of cleaves in the presence of UV light to yield D3. D3 and its known analogue's behavioiur and bioactivety also behaves like a steroid/hormone in that it can passively diffuse across a membrane. and helps down-regulate other metabolic reactions. Its effects on reducing inflammation in IG patients is well documented and worth checking out. Here is a good review on Corticosteroids, specifically on there effects on inflammation treatment. https://www.medicinenet.com/corticosteroids_vs_nsaids/article.htm#what_are_corticosteroids_and_nsaids https://www.medicinenet.com/corticosteroids_vs_nsaids/articl...
