In fact, only 8 forms of medication (such as aspirin, penicillin and diazepam&#8230;) and 2 nutritional supplements (Omega-3 and Vitamin E) have had more studies of this type carried out than Vitamin D.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neolifesalud.com\/imagenes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/vitamina-d.jpg\" alt=\"Vitamin D\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A recent study published online in the journal Neurology (1) has correlated the risk of developing dementia in the elderly with low levels of Vitamin D. The study involved monitoring 25-hydroxyvitamin D (Vitamin D) plasma levels in 1,658 healthy participants over almost 6 years. During this period, 171 of these developed some form of dementia (102 cases of which included Alzheimer\u2019s disease). The total sample was classified into 3 groups; those with very low Vitamin D levels (below 25 nmol\/L), those with low levels (between 25 and 50 nmol\/L) and those with optimal levels of above 50 nmol\/L. The researchers demonstrated that the risk of suffering dementia was 2.<br \/>\n<br \/>22 times higher in the group with Vitamin D levels lower than 25 nmol\/L and 1.69 times higher in the group with moderately low Vitamin D levels between 25 and 50 nmol\/L, compared to those who had presented optimal values of 50 nmol\/L or above.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Low Vitamin D levels have been seen to affect our neurocognitive capacity through vascular and neurodegenerative mechanisms. In certain regions of the brain there are Vitamin D receptors that are linked to memory. In addition, Vitamin D regulates the expression of neurotrophins acting as a mediator of neural regeneration and slowing down amyloid cytotoxicity and neuronal apoptosis (neurodegeneration) in the cerebral cortex.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The results indicate that Vitamin D plasma levels above 50 nmol\/L help prevent the onset of dementia, although additional studies advocate exceeding 75 nmol\/L. However, the authors of this study consider that deeper research is necessary before openly suggesting Vitamin D supplements for the prevention of dementia and, in particular, of Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With <strong>Neolife\u2019s <em><strong>Age Management<\/strong><\/em> programs<\/strong> we seek to achieve and maintain 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels between 125 and 250 nmol\/L.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">BIBLIOGRAPHY<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">(1) \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.neurology.org\/content\/early\/2014\/08\/06\/WNL.0000000000000755\">https:\/\/www.neurology.org\/content\/early\/2014\/08\/06\/WNL.0000000000000755<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neolife medical management A recent study published in the journal Neurology has correlated the risk of developing dementia in the elderly with low levels of Vitamin D.
