Want to live longer? Try Vitamin D
Writing in the journal Clinical Endocrinology, scientists from the Netherlands, Austria, and the U.S. report that low blood levels of the sunshine vitamin are associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality, and mortality from heart disease, in the elderly.
The research follows hot on the heels of similar findings published in Nutrition Research and in the Archives of Internal Medicine.
The new study used data from 614 people participating in the Hoorn Study, a prospective population-based study with men and women with an average age of 69.8. Blood levels of 25(OH)D were measured at the start of the study. After an average of six years of follow-up, 51 deaths had been documented, 20 of which were due to cardiovascular health.
People with the lowest average vitamin D levels were found to be at a 124 and 378 percent increased risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality, respectively.
Commenting on the potential mechanism, the researchers note:
“Apart from the maintenance of muscular and skeletal health, vitamin D may also protect against cancer, infections, autoimmune and vascular diseases, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency might contribute to a reduced life expectancy.”
Adults with lower blood levels of vitamin D may also be more likely to die from heart disease or stroke. Scientists in Finland compared blood levels of vitamin D, and deaths from heart disease or stroke over time in more than 6,000 people. Those with the lowest vitamin D levels had a 25 percent higher risk of dying from heart disease or stroke.
In addition, in a study of 166 women undergoing treatment for breast cancer, nearly 70 percent had low levels of vitamin D in their blood, according to a study presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology’s Breast Cancer Symposium. The analysis showed women with late-stage disease and non-Caucasian women had even lower levels.
Said Luke Peppone, Ph.D., research assistant professor of Radiation Oncology, at Rochester’s James P. Wilmot Cancer Center:
“Vitamin D is essential to maintaining bone health and women with breast cancer have accelerated bone loss due to the nature of hormone therapy and chemotherapy. It’s important for women and their doctors to work together to boost their vitamin D intake."

"Organic" is the term used to describe food that is grown without synthetic pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, hormones, fertilizers or other synthetic or toxic substances. Organic foods must be free of artificial flavors or colors. Nor will organic certification be granted to foods that have been irradiated or to foods that are based on genetically modified organisms.
According to the Food and Drug Administration, in order for products to be considered organic, they must be free of all of the harmful substances for at least three years. In October 2002 the U.S. Department of Agriculture passed a new national standard for organic labeling. This new standard includes three label classifications.
Organic farming is an environmentally friendly approach to agriculture. Farmers who utilize organic methods don't rely on synthetic chemicals or harmful toxins to grow and manufacture their products. Instead, organic farmers prevent pests by planting a diverse range of crops, rotating their crops, and using natural, biological methods.
Hence, organic farming helps to conserve natural ecosystems. No artificial pesticides, no herbicides, no hormones and no growth promoting agents are administered; and this means that these harmful ingredients will not make their way into the food chain.
At the present time, the Food and Drug Administration does not closely monitor the labeling of organic skin care products. However, this may soon change, as many manufacturers and consumers are demanding better transparency and accountability for organic skin care products.
In particular, many consumers are hoping to avoid the toxic chemicals and synthetic ingredients found in most traditional skin care products. But unfortunately, most products that are labeled "natural" or even "organic" cannot be fully trusted.
Many traditional skin care products have an ingredient that includes a long list of chemical names, some followed by the phrase "derived from ..." (some natural substance). The manufacturer of these products may consider them "natural," but the average health-conscious consumer would not. For example, chemicals such as Cocamide DEA or Sodium Hydroxysultaine may be listed on a product and followed by the words "derived from coconut oil." This misleading statement suggests that these synthetic chemicals are natural. However, this is not the case. Cocamide DEA is a foaming agent commonly found in shampoos. In order to produce this synthetic chemical, coconut oil must be reacted with another chemical Diethanolamine (DEA.) DEA is a known carcinogen. This chemical may be derived from coconut oil, but it is far from natural, or even safe.
According to FDA, "...a cosmetic manufacturer may use almost any raw material as a cosmetic ingredient and market the product without an approval from FDA" (FDA 1995).
While some companies make products that would be safe enough to eat, other companies choose to use known human carcinogens or developmental toxins like coal tar and lead acetate. The best way to differentiate between truly organic skin care products and those that just claim to be so is to carefully read the ingredient list on the product label. All skin care products must legally list their ingredients on their packaging, in descending order based on quantity by total volume. A good rule of thumb is to divide the ingredient list into thirds: the top third usually contains 90-95% of the product; the middle third usually contains 5-8% and the bottom third, 1-3%.
The most confusing thing about reading the ingredients label on your skin care product is that all of the products will be listed by their chemical name. So unless you're a chemist, it's unlikely that you will readily recognize the benefits or safety concerns associated with each ingredient listed. But with the help of your local library, or the internet, you can easily assess the safety of any ingredient listed on your skin care product.
For every chemical produced, there is a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) published that contains information about the chemical and its overall safety. The MSDS lists a summary of the chemical facts and summarizes the hazards to human health, first aid measures, precautions when handling the raw material, exposure limits, and what medical action should be taken if the chemical is accidentally touches skin. The MSDS will also list any other names by which the chemical is known. You can obtain an MSDS for any given chemical by entering its name into the Google search engine.
