Vitamin D has long been known to be important when it comes to bone formation and bone strength. But what about other benefits?

In recent studies, scientists are finding that that older men who consume high amounts of Vitamin D showed the best cognitive function. In particular, men over 60 did exceptionally well.

Scientists are not yet sure why the connection between Vitamin D and cognitive function exists, but further research is underway.

    If you are interested in vitamin D you should take a look at http://www.vitaminD3world.com The site has good summaries of the data and offers a new preparation of vitamin D in a micro-pill formulation. The pills have been formulated with cellulose which absorbs water very quickly. This ensures that the pill breaks up very quickly to provide for maximum absorption. The micro pill is tiny and tasteless. Many vitamin D pills on the market have very poor dissolution properties resulting in poor absorption.
    The site also offers to supply customers with a free supply of 400IU for their children and it also has a good newsletter.
