Article Synopsis
- - Vitamin D insufficiency is common and linked to various diseases such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular issues, and even higher mortality rates.
- - There’s a discrepancy between observational studies (which often show positive results) and intervention studies (which typically show negative results), likely due to differences in baseline vitamin D levels among participants.
- - Improving vitamin D status, especially in the elderly who are often deficient, can reduce disease risks and is a cost-effective and safe approach for disease prevention compared to traditional polypharmacy.
