Effective measures for the primary prevention of vitamin D deficiency include dietary intake and cutaneous synthesis. Cutaneous synthesis requires enough sun exposure and it depends on multiple factors including season, latitude, altitude, duration and skin pigmentation. However, there is a concern regarding sun exposure that increases skin cancer. So, it is not recommended to prevent vitamin D deficiency. <ref name="urlOverview of Vitamin D - Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D - NCBI Bookshelf">{{cite web |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK56061/ |title=Overview of Vitamin D - Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D - NCBI Bookshelf |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>

Overview

Vitamin D is recommended for everyone to prevent vitamin D deficiency. The current guideline by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends 600 IU/d for healthy individuals between 1-70 years of age and 800 IU/d for elderly over 70. [1]

Prevention

Effective measures for the primary prevention of vitamin D deficiency include dietary intake and cutaneous synthesis. Cutaneous synthesis requires enough sun exposure and it depends on multiple factors including season, latitude, altitude, duration and skin pigmentation. However, there is a concern regarding sun exposure that increases skin cancer. So, it is not recommended to prevent vitamin D deficiency. [2]

  • In 2011, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommended 600 IU/d of vitamin D for healthy persons over 1 year of age until 70. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of vitamin D for individuals over 70 years of age is 800 IU/d. RDA for pregnant and lactating women is the same as for nonpregnant adults. [3]
  • The National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) recommends higer dose 800-1000 IU/d of vitamin D for adults age 50 and older.[4]
  • In the UK, the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition (SACN) recommends 400 IU/d of vitamin D (10 micrograms) for everyone above one year of age. Infants, from birth up to one year of age, as a precaution, should consume 340-400 IU/d of vitamin D (8.5-10 micrograms). [5]
  • For the Europeans, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), published the recommendation as follows: [6]
    • Infants aged 7-11 months: 10 µg/day
    • for all other population groups aged one year and more (including pregnant/lactating women): 15 µg/day
