TLDR Balanced vitamin D levels are crucial to delay aging and prevent related diseases.
The document reviewed the role of vitamin D in aging, highlighting that both hypo- and hypervitaminosis D could influence aging-related diseases. It was found that high vitamin D3 activity, particularly calcitriol, might accelerate aging, while vitamin D3 insufficiency was linked to diseases like osteoporosis, cancer, and cardiovascular issues. The study suggested that calcidiol, rather than calcitriol, might be the main circulating hormone affecting aging processes. The findings underscored the importance of maintaining balanced vitamin D levels to mitigate premature aging and associated diseases.
