I have been looking into this topic myself and some research I came across suggested measuring the levels of 1,25D and 25 D and that will allow for determining that information.
According to what I read, this is stated by Dr. Marshall. I have not had a chance to confirm this or not, but this article shed some light:
As I said, I had not had a chance to confirm the correlation, as this was simply something I stumbled upon briefly.
Towards the end of the article, he references Th1 dominates and the correlating ratio of the D levels.

He seems to imply that higher D 1,25 levels means higher Th1 activation. I am going to look into the cytokine panel as well. Thanks

That seems like the panel to run as that is what I was looking for as well. I'm glad you posted this topic and thanks to asus for posting the link.
