Take Home Messages
- Vitamin D is a hormone that promotes calcium
absorption in the gut
- Impaired calcium absorption due to low
vitamin D reduces mineralization and leads to changes in bone microstructure
- There is minimal RPCT data to support
calcium/ vitamin D supplementation to prevent most chronic disease-except in the frail with OM, high risk of falls, or low 25OHD
- Basic studies of vitamin D are essential to fully
understand its actions
