Vitamin D deficiency is associated with various diseases. Prevalent in Brazil, it can result from inadequate lifestyle habits. To demonstrate that postmenopausal women with vitamin D deficiency have worse quality of health, expressed as worse quality of life, lower levels of physical activity, and worse nutritional profile. Postmenopausal women answered questionnaires about physical activity and quality of life, provided a 24-hour food record, and had serum vitamin D levels measured. Among the more active women, those who perform a daily average of one hour of physical activity had vitamin D levels above 20 ng/mL (76.9%), and those, which expose themselves to sunlight, had vitamin D levels above 30 ng/mL (34.6%). Meanwhile the percentages for the women who are less physically active and less exposed to sunlight were 42.2% and 8.9% respectively. Being more active and more exposed to sunlight resulted in a lower fat percentage. Serum vitamin D levels were not correlated with quality of life. Walking and gardening increased serum vitamin D levels and decreased the percentage of body fat. The limitations of the study prevented the impact of 25-hidroxyvitamin D on the quality of life and nutritional aspects of the women from being evaluated.
维生素D缺乏与多种疾病相关。在巴西很普遍，它可能源于不良的生活习惯。为了证明维生素D缺乏的绝经后女性健康质量更差，表现为生活质量更差、身体活动水平更低以及营养状况更差。绝经后女性回答了关于身体活动和生活质量的问卷，提供了24小时饮食记录，并测量了血清维生素D水平。在活动较多的女性中，每天平均进行一小时身体活动的女性维生素D水平高于20 ng/mL（76.9%），而暴露于阳光下的女性维生素D水平高于30 ng/mL（34.6%）。同时，身体活动较少且较少暴露于阳光下的女性的这两个百分比分别为42.2%和8.9%。更多的活动和更多地暴露于阳光下导致更低的体脂百分比。血清维生素D水平与生活质量无关。散步和园艺增加了血清维生素D水平并降低了体脂百分比。该研究的局限性使得无法评估25-羟基维生素D对这些女性生活质量和营养方面的影响。
