Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to various health conditions, including depression and agerelated disorders. The role of vitamin D in the prevention of depression and accelerated ageing has gained attention in recent years. Research suggests that maintaining adequate vitamin D levels may have a protective effect on mental health and ageing-related processes. The review examines existing research to determine the extent of the relationship between vitamin D status, depressive symptoms, and the ageing process. It also explores the potential mechanisms and clinical implications, emphasizing the necessity for further investigation and interventions to promote mental well-being people.
