To add more context that (if i'm understanding the study correctly), higher levels of vitamin D in midlife lowers dementia risks.
"In a group of dementia-free individuals, higher serum 25(OH)D at early midlife was associated with lower tau deposition on brain-PET a mean of 16 years later. Low vitamin D in midlife may represent a potentially modifiable target to mitigate the risk of neuroimaging signs of preclinical dementia."
Don't over do it.
Yeah, & I discovered that some people have a gene for .. conserving vitamin-D, or something like that, so that dosages insufficient for normal people are entirely sufficient for them.
damn biochemistry gets complicated, when you try understanding all the different things properly..
