Scientists from the Aberin and Auckland universities were able to see that the use of vitamin D for strengthening bones was useless - although it was argued for a long time that this vitamin along with calcium plays a key role in the health of human bones.. In the publication of The Lancet Diabets & Endocrinology, the authors of a new study stated that vitamin D has no effect on the bones of the skeleton..

Vitamin D does not prevent fractures and does not improve bone mineral density, experts concluded. They analyzed data from 81 studies..

Studies were conducted among pensioners. They took into account what changes with the body occurred while taking vitamin D in the form of supplements.

As the authors of scientific work could see, it is precisely at the expense of synthetic means that it is impossible to fill in the deficiency of this vitamin.. At the same time, they are convinced: this conclusion is true for all people, not only of retirement age.

Vitamin D is recommended in conditions of northern climate and lack of sunny days.. New research has shown that the body absorbs this nutrient only at the expense of "natural" means, for example, sunbathing and products included in the daily menu (fish oil, seafood, mushrooms, eggs, beef liver).
