A new study suggests that low vitamin D levels greatly increase a person's risk of losing muscle strength due to age, known as deficiency, which is a major risk factor for falls.
This study, published on September 15, 2022**, by the journal Calcified Tissue International and Musculoskeletal Research on September 15, 2022**, analyzed data from more than 3,200 patients aged 50 years and older with no prior deficiency.
Researchers followed them for four years as part of a longitudinal study of ageing in the UK, a long-term study that began in 2002.
Vitamin D levels are measured by blood tests at the beginning and are classified as adequate (defined as more than 50 nanomol per liter, or nmolL), insufficient (30 to 49 nmol), or deficient (less than 30 nmol).
After four years, grip strength was assessed as a measure of the participant's ability. Overall muscle strength.
By the end of the study, people with vitamin D deficiency were 70% more likely to develop asexual deficiency than those with normal vitamin D levels.
The researchers say this result makes sense, as vitamin D is known to aid muscle repair and contraction.
People can avoid vitamin D deficiency by being careful in the sun, eating vitamin-rich foods, or taking supplements.
