Study Summary
The role of vitamin D deficiency on increased risk for falls and physical dysfunction is unclear. It is also unclear if taking vitamin D improves physical function and reduces fall risk in older adults. The purpose of this research study is to explore the effects of taking the recommended dose of vitamin D (800 IUs/day) for six months on fall risk and physical functional outcomes in older adults with low vitamin D levels. The investigators hypothesize that the participants will experience fewer falls and function better physically after taking vitamin D for six months.
