More Time In Sun For Elderly Could Reduce Cardiac Risk

Spending more time in the sun could translate to a lower risk of heart disease and diabetes in older people.

Researchers at the University of Warwick say that is because sunlight stimulates vitamin D in the skin and older people are more likely to have low vitamin D levels.

They note vitamin D deficiency can lead to a condition known as metabolic syndrome, which heightens the risk of developing heart disease and diabetes.

More than 32-hundred people age 50 to 70 from Beijing and Shanghai, China, were recruited for this study.

The researchers found 94-percent of the study participants had a vitamin D deficiency, with about 42-percent of those people also having metabolic syndrome.

Lead researcher Dr. Oscar Franco says the study results are consistent with findings in U.S. and British populations.

He suggests vitamin D deficiency could become a global health problem.
