Vitamin D could affect dementia: According to a new study, higher values are associated with less dew deposits in the brain years later.
A new study published in the journal Neurology Open Access has found that vitamin D levels in middle-aged adults are associated with the accumulation of tau, a brain-damaging protein linked to Alzheimer's disease. The higher the vitamin D levels in the patients, the fewer abnormal protein deposits they had years later, ScienceAlert reported.
Does Vitamin D Reduce Alzheimer’s Biomarkers? A Closer Look
Dementia remains one of the most daunting health concerns associated with aging. It impacts memory, cognition, and independence, affecting not only individuals but also their families and communities alike. Researchers have long sought ways to prevent or slow the progression of dementia, and recent findings suggest that a simple nutrient—vitamin D—might play a role. Published in Neurology Open Access, the study examined how vitamin D levels in e…
A recent study suggests a possible link between vitamin D levels in middle age and the amount of tau proteins accumulated in the brain, associated with Alzheimer's disease. The research, conducted by an international team, analyzed blood samples and brain imaging scans from 793 adults, revealing that higher vitamin D levels may be linked to lower amounts of tau tangles. The results indicate that individuals with higher vitamin D levels in middle…
Higher Vitamin D in Midlife May Be Associated with Lower Levels of Alzheimer’s Biomarker Years Later
News New research followed nearly 800 participants for more than a decade and a half, examining whether vitamin D levels measured in their 30s were linked to changes in the brain in later life. Individuals with higher circulating levels of vitamin D had lower accumulations of tau – a protein that forms damaging tangles in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease – when scanned roughly 16 years later.
