New Research on Vitamin D3 and Aging

Welcome back!

This just in from Vitamin Research Products:

Scientists have been studying the effects of Vitamin D3 in women aged 18-79. In particular, they were studying the effects of D3 on a certain part of a chromosome that shortens as we age when we are exposed to increased inflammation.

Because the D3 inhibits inflammation, the researchers are thinking it might actually have an effect on the length of this specific part of the chromosome called a telomere.

Basically, they found that women with more Vitamin D3 in their bodies generally had longer telomeres. And people with longer leukocyte telomere length (LTL) generally aged more slowly.

According to the study authors, “Our findings suggest that higher vitamin D concentrations, which are easily modifiable through nutritional supplementation, are associated with longer LTL,” which may explain the potentially beneficial effects of this vitamin on aging and age-related diseases.

So, there you have it.
