摘要
Dear Editor:Fortification programs are not established for nutrients like vitamin D among other nutrients in Iran.It is reported that approximately 80%of Iranians do not meet the estimated average requirement for calcium and vitamin D[1].The Iranian Multicenter Osteoporosis Study(IMOS)has shown that more than 80%of Iranians have vitamin D deficiency[2].However,currently,there is no data on vitamin D supplementation in elderly adults in Iran.We carried out a secondary analysis of a bigger population-based cross-sectional study,which was conducted among elderly men and women in the 6thdistrict of Tehran to determine the frequency of sarcopenia[3].
