Having Vitamin D Supplement might not really help you in getting a healthier body

Studies done by Dr Mark Bolland of the University of Auckland and team were published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. It followed a previous study done by Philippe Autier and team which was also published in December 2013. It talked about the lack of evidence to portray good health association with intake of Vitamin D supplements. Studies were done from 40 randomised controlled trials. It showed that vitamin D when taken with or without any form of calcium supplement does not affect in any way the risks of a stroke, heart attack, cancer or even a fracture. There was no evidence to suggest that it can reduce mortality in humans by even 5%. Hence the Vitamin D supplements that most of the people take around the world may not have any plausible or seemingly visible health benefits. Professor Karl Michaëlsson, Uppsala University says, "Without stringent indications—i.e. supplementing those without true vitamin D insufficiency—there is a legitimate fear that vitamin D supplementation might actually cause net harm."
