Vitamin D for healthy aging

Morales, Javier S. ; Garatachea, Nuria (Universidad de Zaragoza) ; Pareja-Galeano, Helios

Resumen: Buta et al., in a longitudinal cohort study, have recently reported that women (70–79 years of age) with lower serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) (<10 ng/mL) had a 3-fold increased risk of developing frailty than those with the higher 25(OH)D (=30 ng/mL) levels. Authors found that 32.2 per 1,000 person-years in participants with 25(OH)D < 10 ng/mL suffered frailty compared with an incidence of 12.9% per 1,000 person-years in those women with 25(OH)D = 30 ng/mL. The association was no longer significant after accounting cardiometabolic diseases.
