MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin (CBS/AP) Worried about Alzheimer’s? New research suggests that vitamin D and exercise are prime factors in warding off the degenerative disease.
Moderate to heavy exercisers had half the risk of developing dementia compared with less active people, researchers working on the Framingham Heart Study reported Sunday.
“That seems to be as good as anything” for preventing dementia, said Dr. Richard Mayeux, a Columbia University neurologist and conference leader.

ABSTRACT
New knowledge of the biological and clinical importance of the steroid hormone 1
Vitamin D is a steroid hormone with many important functions in the brain, mediated through the vitamin D nuclear receptor. Numerous human and animal data link vitamin D dysfunctions to various behavioural disorders. To examine this problem, we studied whether genetic ablation of vitamin D receptors in mice may be associated with altered emotional behaviours. Here we show that the receptor-deficient mice demonstrate increased anxiety-like behaviours when subjected to a battery of behavioural tests. These studies suggest that vitamin D and its receptors are an important factor in the brain, whose imbalance may significantly affect emotional behaviour.

We are really amazed that this data, which has been around forever, is not really well know to the public. If you live in a northern latitude you make virtually no D3 from sunlight from November thru February. We are looking at you northern states! Get your D3 and feel like you do all summer long! Feeling great is just a few capsules away. With Mood D, Immu D, Anxie D, and Night D Night, you can choose which option suites you and what you need! Our goal at BioRevival is to change the world by defeating D3 deficiency one person at a time. Also, stay tuned for our forthcoming campaign to give a bottle of D3 to a needy child for every one you purchase from us!
Did you know that your body can produce as much Vitamin D3 as it did when you were young
Only 4% of the children had taken 400IU of Vitamin D in a months time.
Recent studies suggest that because human beings are staying out of the sun for fear of skin cancer, that vitamin D levels are dropping at an alarming rate in almost every culture around the world. It has been suggested by experts that over 1 billion people are Vitamin D deficient. The daily recommend dose of D3 has been raised to 5000IU in adults and 1000 IU in children.
