Vitamin D Linked To Cognitive Problems In Older People

The study found a direct correlation between Vitamin D levels and the level of cognitive impairment in older people. Previous studies had determined that those with greater levels of cognitive impairment are at higher risk of developing dementia. The study is of particular interest because as people age they are less able to generate Vitamin D from sunlight so must rely more on food sources.
