The higher risk of premature death was true for both serum and genetically determined vitamin D levels. Vitamin D deficiency can be corrected with a D3 supplement. For each 1,000 IU vitamin D serum levels increase ~ 5-10ng/ml. A good range is 40-60ng/ml. acpjournals.org/doi/full/10.73…

Vitamin D deficiency is associated with a 25% higher risk of premature death. People with vitamin D deficiency also had higher death rates from cancer and particularly respiratory diseases. Very relevant as ~30% of US population is vitamin D deficient (serum <20ng/ml).

@ACPreH1 @sahmriAU Very excited to share our recent publication - Vitamin D Deficiency Increases Mortality Risk in the UK Biobank.

New from @UniversitySA: study of adults in the UK has found support for causal relationship between #VitaminD deficiency and mortality: ow.ly/jIOC50Lkay4

How can you stop thinking about something? A new study monitored brain activity and found that deliberately telling yourself to replace a negative thought with another thought works better than trying to suppress the thought. eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2…

@foundmyfitness Very happy to share my recent vitamin D findings with the world. PhD paper number 1! Just published in Clinical Nutrition: unisa.edu.au/Media-Centre/R… | protect-au.mimecast.com/s/O-xCC91WXAux…

Very happy to share my first PhD paper with the world!
