Vitamina D en la tercera edad.

Alejandro Adrián Bevaqua

Resumen


En el campo de la Clínica Médica, la vitamina D se asocia tradicionalmente con la regulación del metabolismo fosfocálcico. Sin embargo, no es el rol exclusivo de esta vitamina dado que tiene diferentes funciones, no menos relevantes. Interviene en procesos tales como la regulación de la tensión arterial con la ulterior disminución del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular, el aumento del tono y fuerza muscular y consecuentemente en la prevención de las caídas en adultos mayores y su derivación más grave, las fracturas y la participación en procesos inmunitarios con disminución del riesgo de padecer alergias, cáncer, diabetes e incluso esclerosis múltiple. Dada la importancia de la Vitamina D en patologías con alta prevalencia en la tercera edad, es importante analizar sus niveles en este grupo poblacional y proceder a su suplementación cuando así se requiera.
