Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor: I'd play breast cancer storyline 'differently'
A randomized clinical trial of Vitamin D supplementation in 80 women undergoing chemotherapy in preparation for breast cancer surgery found that, in the treatment group, 43% of the cancers disappeared, whereas only 24% of the cancers disappeared in the control group.

A daily vitamin D supplement may quietly supercharge chemotherapy. In a small study, women who took low doses alongside treatment were far more likely to see their cancer vanish than those who didn’t. Since vitamin D also supports immune function—and many patients are deficient—it could be playing a bigger role than expected. Scientists say this affordable approach deserves much deeper investigation.
