Research Notes on Vitamin D and Thyroid Disease
Vitamin D is a common treatment for both hypo- and hyperparathyroidism. The lack of parathyroid hormones in hypoparathyroidism can cause hypocalcemia (low blood calcium level), which in turn may cause muscle irritability and spasms. In secondary hyperparathyroidism, in which kidney failure is the most common cause, there is an increased level of parathyroid hormones due to the inability of vitamin D to be converted to its active form.
