A short hypothesis that connects the dots regarding the Vitamin D – PTH hormone cycle and its impact on Ischemic Stroke. This review will bring evidence of a negative correlation between Vitamin D and Parathyroid Hormone levels and suggest that this correlation is the reason for the hazardous relationship between lacking vitamin D levels and the formation of aneurysm and stroke. This connection between Vitamin D and Ischemic Stroke should be thoroughly examined for a possible therapeutic effect of vitamin D supplementation while the Vitamin D-PTH hormone negative correlation should be further studied for its possible involvement in stroke but also in other bodily hazards stemming from insufficient Vitamin D levels.
