What is the role of vitamin D in healthy ageing?

In the latest research of Prof. Carsten Carlberg and his Nutrigenomics Team we learn about potential molecular mechanisms linking vitamin D levels to the expression of genes involved in aging processes. A special attention was given to individual genetic variations affecting vitamin D metabolism and the potential for personalized supplementation based on genetic profiles.
