I don't have any questions, I just wanted to thank you for bringing life back to me.
I was so sick and now I am feeling as good as I did twenty years ago! It has been a long battle: no energy, aches and pains going from one
Dr. to the next. They told me it was anything from arthritis to depression; they had me on steroids for three years... All behind me now!
I just don't know how to thank you. I think it would be wonderful if you could just be everywhere with your caring heart. Information and the
real reason behind all of the bad, sick days that so many of us have had.
Sincerely, Jessica...@telusplanet.net

Thinking or cognitive impairments in elderly men are shown in new research to be associated with low Vitamin D levels. A study of three thousand European men, 40-79 yrs old, demonstrated that people with reduced amounts of Vitamin D in their body did not score as well on a cognitive ability standardized test (assessment of individual's attention and speed of information processing) as others did with standard levels of Vitamin D.
Their average level of Vitamin D among the elderly men was 63 nanomoles per liter. However, 90-140 nanomoles per liter is usually deemed as optimal. Men over age 60 with Vitamin D levels below 35 nanomoles per liter strongly illustrated less cognitive presentation. Research is still being conducted to see if Vitamin D supplementation can definitely improve cognition.
