Seniors With Highest Vitamin D Levels Show Maxed Vitality

New research shows seniors with higher levels of vitamin D demonstrate more youth and vitality as they enjoy longer life spans. A limited number of studies have pointed to the possibility that optimal intake of vitamin D (the “sunshine” vitamin) might help keep our muscles strong and preserve physical function. To help understand this diet-health association, researchers at Wake Forest University studied the relationship between vitamin D status and physical function in a group of relatively healthy seniors living in Memphis, TN and Pittsburgh, PA.
