This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Vitamin D levels have been shown to be low in many elderly patients. Vitamin D is important for strong bones. The use of vitamin D has been shown to reduce fractures and reduce the risk of falling. It is important for good health and may reduce the risk of cancer, multiple sclerosis, and type 1 diabetes mellitus. One goal of the study is to see if elderly patients at the Seniors Clinic are getting enough vitamin D from their diet and over-the-counter supplements. Another goal is to see if pharmacist education about diet and dietary supplements can increase vitamin D levels.

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。许多老年患者的维生素D水平较低。维生素D对强壮骨骼很重要。维生素D的使用已被证明可以减少骨折并降低跌倒的风险。它对身体健康很重要，可以降低患癌症、多发性硬化症和1型糖尿病的风险。该研究的一个目标是观察老年诊所的老年患者是否从饮食和非处方补充剂中获得足够的维生素D。另一个目标是看看关于饮食和膳食补充剂的药剂师教育是否可以增加维生素D水平。
