Could vitamin d levels predict metabolic health in seniors?
NCT ID NCT03344718
Summary
This study looked at whether higher vitamin D levels are linked to a lower risk of metabolic syndrome (a cluster of conditions like high blood pressure and insulin resistance) in older adults who do not have a vitamin D deficiency. Researchers surveyed nearly 2,000 community-dwelling people over 65 and collected blood samples to measure various health markers. The goal was to understand the relationship between vitamin D and metabolic health to inform future health recommendations.
