Vitamin D doesn't add to bone density in healthy

Vitamin D doesn\'t add to bone density in healthy London - Arab Today A meta-analysis involving about 4,000 healthy adults found vitamin D supplements are not necessary to prevent osteoporosis, New Zealand researchers say. Study leader Ian Reid of the University of Auckland Bone Research Group and colleagues conducted a systematic review and meta-data analysis of studies, and reported in The Lancet that taking vitamin D supplements did not improve bone mineral density in healthy adults with a normal vitamin D level. \"Most healthy adults do not need vitamin D supplements. Our data suggest that the targeting of low-dose vitamin D supplements only to individuals who are likely to be deficient could free up substantial resources that could be better used elsewhere in healthcare,\" Reid said in a statement. \"This systematic review provides very little evidence of an overall benefit of vitamin D supplementation on bone density. Continuing widespread use of vitamin D for osteoporosis prevention in community-dwelling adults without specific risk factors for vitamin D deficiency seems inappropriate.\" Analysis of the data from the 23 studies did not identify any effects for people who took vitamin D for an average period of two years, apart from a small but statistically significant increase in bone density -- 0.8 percent -- at the femoral neck. Such a localized effect is unlikely to be clinically significant, Reid said. \"In North America and Europe particularly, more than half the adult population have their vitamin D level assessed and take vitamin D supplements. Some advocates have suggested that the indicator level for needing vitamin D supplements has been quite high,\" Reid said. \"We believe that vitamin D supplements are only indicated for people with very low levels, such as those who are frail, are confined rest-home residents, or women who are veiled, and some dark skinned people.\" Source: UPI
