Scientists have produced more evidence that vitamin D has an important role in keeping the brain in good working order in later life.
A study of over 3,000 European men aged 40-79 found those with high vitamin D levels performed better on memory and information processing tests.
The University of Manchester team believe vitamin D may protect cells or key signalling pathways in the brain.
The study features in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery and Psychiatry.
