Summary

This study looked at whether a higher daily dose of vitamin D (4000 IU) helps burn patients with vitamin D deficiency feel better physically and mentally compared to the usual low dose (400 IU). 48 adults who had a major burn injury at least 6 months ago took either a high or low dose vitamin D capsule daily. Researchers measured changes in health, itching, and quality of life over time.
