    (HealthDay News) -- Older adults with too little vitamin D in their blood may havetwice the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease as seniors with sufficient levels of the"sunshine vitamin," a new study finds. The research -- based on more than 1,600adults over age 65 -- found the risk for Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia in-creased with the severity of vitamin D deficiency. But the findings aren't enough torecommend seniors take vitamin D supplements to prevent mental decline. "Clinicaltrials are now urgently needed in this area," said study researcher David Llewellyn, asenior research fellow in clinical epidemiology at the University of Exeter MedicalSchool in England. Another expert agreed. "This shows you there is a link betweenvitamin D and the development of Alzheimer's," said Keith Fargo, director of scien-tific programs and outreach for the Alzheimer's Association, one of several fundingsources for the study. "What it doesn't show you is that [cause-and-effect] link."Whether dietary changes or getting more sun exposure would help isn't known, Fargosaid. "We don't know if increasing vitamin D levels would decrease the risk of Alzhei-mer's," he added. Published online Aug. 6 in the journal Neurology , this is believed to

    be the largest study yet to find an association between low levels of vitamin D anddementia. Vitamin D is essential for maintaining bone health. It is also thought tomoderate cell growth and help control immune function and inflammation. VitaminD can be obtained through food, through the skin after exposure to sunlight and fromsupplements. Dementia describes a decline in memory and thinking that interfereswith daily life. Alzheimer's is the most common form of dementia in old age, affect-ing about 5 million Americans, according to the Alzheimer's Association. For thisstudy, researchers looked at mentally healthy men and women who participated inthe U.S. Cardiovascular Health Study between 1992-93 and 1999.Their blood samples were collected at the start, and their mental status was assessed

It is anice activity for inside. Ifyou are interested please call620-584-2332.

    With all its moving, twisting, and turning, square dancing provides more than thedaily dose of heart- and bone-healthy physical activity. Remembering all the calls --from "do-si-do" to 'alemand' -- keeps the mind sharp, potentially staving off age-related memory loss, experts say. And the companionship that regular squaredancing offers is an antidote to depression and loneliness, a statement confirmed

    by square-dancing advocates everywhere. John Chitwood will again be leading aclass that will teach the basics of square dancing. The class will open for people tocome and try for the first 4 weeks in order to be fair to the rest of the dancers. Ifyou are interested please call the Center at 620-584-2332 or just come by on a Fri-day night starting in November. The first class will be Friday, November 7th at7:00 pm.

    As most of you are aware, on August 30th we had our An-nual Catfish Fry. There was wonderful entertainment andgreat food! Thank you again to Earl Brockmans son forcatching all the fish! This is an annual fundraiser for theCenter. Totals are all in. The quilt sales brought in $655.65and after we paid for the supplies we made a profit of$355.65. The Fish Fry brought in $395.00 and after sup-plies we made a profit of $199.80. All together profit was$555.45. Thank you to all who came out and supportedthis event. Keep an eye out for upcoming fundraisers.

    Their blood samples were collected at the start, and theirmental status was assessed roughly six years later.Participants' vitamin D blood levels reflected vitamin Dfrom food, supplements and sun exposure. Dietarysources include fatty fish such as salmon, tuna or macke-rel, as well as milk, eggs and cheese.During the follow-up, those with low levels of vitamin Dwere about 1.7 times more likely to develop dementiathan those with normal levels. Those with severely lowlevels were about 2.2 times more likely than those withnormal levels to develop dementia, the study found. Theresults echo some findings from other, smaller studies,Fargo said. "What's important about this study is thelarge number of participants," he said. Experts disagreeabout the best blood level of vitamin D. In this study,

    risk for dementia and Alzheimer's significantly increased below a threshold of 50 nanomoles per liter (nmol/L),the researchers said. Exactly how low vitamin D may belinked with dementia isn't known. Experts speculate thatthe vitamin may clear plaques in the brain linked withdementia. This has been shown in the lab, Fargo said.Vitamin D deficiency has been linked with brain atrophyas well, according to background information in thestudy. Until more research is in, Fargo recommendedthat people ''try to eat a brain healthy diet," which is thesame as a heart-healthy diet. That includes foods low infat and cholesterol. Getting regular physical activity andkeeping blood pressure under control are other goodmeasures, Fargo said.
