    TLDR Vitamin D and its receptor are essential for hair growth, cell regulation, immune function, and heart health.
    The document from 2006 discussed vitamin D resistance and its widespread effects on various systems in both humans and animals. It highlighted that vitamin D receptor (VDR) resistance caused issues such as hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and decreased bone mineralization. The skin, immune system, cardiovascular system, muscle function, and bile acid metabolism were notably impacted. The study underscored the extensive regulatory roles of the vitamin D endocrine system, which included immune modulation, cell proliferation, and cardiovascular health, beyond just calcium regulation.
