Can drugs reverse the ageing process?
There is currently no drug that has been proven to reverse the aging process. While some medications may help alleviate age-related symptoms or conditions, aging itself is a complex process involving multiple factors, and no drug has been shown to fully reverse or stop it. Research in this area is ongoing.
What are the symptoms that you need extra vitamin D?
Signs and symptomsVitamin D deficiency is known to cause several bone diseases including:Rickets, a childhood disease characterized by impeded growth, and deformity, of the long bones. The earliest sign of subclinical vitamin D deficiency is Craniotabes, abnormal softening or thinning of the skull.Osteomalacia, a bone-thinning disorder that occurs exclusively in adults and is characterized by proximal muscle weakness and bone fragility.Osteoporosis, a condition characterized by reduced bone mineral density and increased bone fragility.Muscle aches and weakness (in particular proximal limb girdle)Muscle twitching (Fasciculations).The role of diet in the development of rickets was determined by Edward Mellanby between 1918-1920. In 1921 Elmer McCollum identified an anti-rachitic substance found in certain fats that could prevent rickets. Because the newly discovered substance was the fourth vitamin identified, it was called vitamin D. The 1928 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Adolf Windaus, who discovered the steroid 7-dehydrocholesterol, the precursor of vitamin D.Prior to the fortification of milk products with vitamin D, rickets was a major public health problem. In the United States, milk has been fortified with 10 micrograms (400 IU) of vitamin D per quart since the 1930s, leading to a dramatic decline in the number of rickets cases.Hypovitaminosis D is also considered a risk factor for the development of depressive symptoms in older persons.

Chronic toxicity can occur at 4,000 IU/kg per day. However, liver toxicities can occur as low as 15,000 IU per day.
