Seasonal fluctuations in parathyroid hormone in relation to vitamin D intake of postmenopausal women

No authors listed. Nutr Rev. 1990 Dec.

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency in elderly living at northern latitudes results in increased serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels after winter. Sunlight exposure and/or vitamin D supplements can prevent the PTH changes and possibly reduce PTH-mediated bone loss.
