Vitamin D Supplements May Lower Blood Pressure in Some Seniors

November 13, 2024 by Vicki Doe Leave a Comment

A new study finds taking vitamin D supplements may lower blood pressure in older people with obesity, but taking more than the recommended daily dose will not provide additional health benefits, according to researchers.

Vitamin D supplements may help lower blood pressure in older people with obesity, a new study finds. But researchers say taking more than the recommended daily dose will not provide additional health benefits.

The study included 221 seniors with obesity who took vitamin D supplements at either the recommended 600 international units a day or a higher dose of 3,750 IU a day over the course of a year.

The supplements decreased the participants’ blood pressure, but taking more did not lead to better outcomes.

One author says, “High vitamin D doses compared to the IOM’s recommended daily dose did not provide additional health benefits.”

The researchers found people with obesity and low levels of vitamin D benefit the most.
