@ACPreH1 @sahmriAU Very excited to share our recent publication - Vitamin D Deficiency Increases Mortality Risk in the UK Biobank.
New #research from @UniversitySA shows that #vitamin D deficiency is associated with premature #death, prompting calls for people to follow healthy vitamin D level guidelines. #health ow.ly/5Kkc50LkYpx

Our genetic analyses provide supporting evidence that low vitamin D status can contribute to chronic inflammation, measured by elevated C-reactive protein @ACPreH1
If you're low on Vitamin D, you could be at risk of #inflammatory diseases such as #type2diabetes or #heartdisease, according to world-first #research from @UniversitySA ow.ly/v2XL50KesAG

Adelaide researchers have made a breakthrough discovery that could help reduce your risk of dementia.
In a world first, the team at UniSA have uncovered a direct link between the brain condition and a lack of sunshine.
