Vitamin D and Alzheimers Disease

from The Neuro Experience · host Louisa Nicola & Pursuit Network

In this episode, I explore the intricate relationship between Vitamin D and Alzheimer's disease. I delve into the scientific nature of Vitamin D, not just as a nutrient but as a prohormone crucial for bone health, immune function, and brain health. The episode highlights the common issue of Vitamin D deficiency and its potential neurological impacts. I also discuss Alzheimer's disease, characterizing it as a form of dementia marked by amyloid-beta plaques and tau protein tangles, leading to cognitive decline. The discussion centers on emerging research that links Vitamin D levels to Alzheimer's, suggesting that adequate Vitamin D might play a role in preventing or mitigating the disease. This episode bridges the gap between Vitamin D's systemic roles and its specific implications in neurological health, particularly in Alzheimer's disease.Find the link to the study discussed in this episode hereWant to ask me a question?
