Vitamin D may provide greater health benefits than previously thought, benefits that include not only improved bone health but other effects as well.
Increased Vitamin D status may decrease the risk of cancer, especially that related to colorectal adenomas.
Vitamin D maintains physical strength in the elderly and is protective against falls.
May decrease the prevalence of metabolic syndromes, including diabetes mellitus.
