Deficiency Sends Alzheimer’s Risk Soaring by 59%
If you don’t know someone who has suffered from Alzheimer’s, you’re lucky.
After 65, about one in nine people has this disease.
If you don’t want that one person to be YOU, then you should be taking steps right now to lower your risk.
Today, I’m going to share with you one of the best steps I know.
Your first step in keeping Alzheimer’s away should be to ensure you have optimal vitamin D levels.
Previous studies have already shown a link between low levels of D and an increased risk of Alzheimer’s.
Now, we have another one to add to the list…
This study was a pooled analysis that included nearly 11,000 people. The results showed that people with low vitamin D (defined as below 25 ng/mL) had a 59 percent greater risk of developing Alzheimer’s compared to those with higher levels.
These findings are right in line with another study I told you about a few months ago, which found that people who were outright deficient in D (below 12 ng/mL) had up to a 25 percent higher risk of developing any form of dementia.
And those who had insufficient levels (less than 20 ng/mL) had up to a 15 percent increased risk of Alzheimer’s.
Don’t play a guessing game with your vitamin D levels.
Chances are, you’ll lose.
Instead, get your blood levels tested—and then take appropriate action to get your vitamin D in the optimal range.
The best way to do that is by spending time in the sun.
