Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin and neurosteroid hormone that plays a role in brain development and function. Vitamin D receptors are widely distributed throughout the brain. Research has associated low vitamin D status with increased risk of cognitive concerns, particularly in older adults.

What dosage of Vitamin D has been used in cognitive studies?

Cognitive studies have used 800 IU to 4,000 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) daily. Some studies have targeted specific serum 25(OH)D levels, typically above 30 ng/mL. The tolerable upper intake is 4,000 IU per day for adults. Consult your healthcare provider and consider testing your levels.

About

Vitamin D is a neurosteroid hormone with receptors throughout the brain, particularly in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex. Deficiency, which affects 40% of geriatric memory clinic patients, is identified as a critical risk factor for cognitive decline. Supplementation supports calcium signaling in neurons, neurotrophic factor expression, and protection against oxidative stress and inflammation.

How It Works
