Low vitamin D boosts depression risk in seniors
Reuters reported on a new study linking low levels of vitamin D with depression. The study does not conclude whether the vitamin D deficiency is a cause or a consequence of the depression.
If it is the cause, this would confirm a physiological connection between sunlight and happiness.
Seniors, particularly those in nursing homes, are at risk of a vitamin D deficiency because they do not spend as much time outdoors.
