Vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide public health problem in both
developed and developing nations. This book focuses on the role
of vitamin D in three areas: oxidation, immunity and aging. The
text presents new information on the action of vitamin D in
regulating numerous aspects of health, disease, and aging. The
author addresses the molecular and cellular mechanism responsible
for the benefits of vitamin D and discusses the role of vitamin D
in oxidative stress, including cancer, the nervous system,
stress-mediated diseases, photoprotection, and energy metabolism,
as well in the regulation of the aging process and its impact on
diseases of aging, mortality, cardiovascular disease, and
inflammation.
