Conclusion Although , serum 25(OH)D concentrations after supplementation reached sufficiency was observed , muscle strength did not significantly improve at this point of current meta- analysis .
Background The purpose of this systematic review and meta- analysis is to investigate the effects of vitamin D3 supplementation on skeletal muscle strength in athletes .
Vitamin D3 supplements or vitamin D3 fortified foods always have cl aims for bringing people health benefits including bone and muscle health .
An up-to- date rigorous systematic review and meta- analysis is important to better underst and the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on muscle strength .
Influence of vitamin D mushroom powder supplementation on exercise-induced muscle damage in vitamin D insufficient high school athletes
Abstract Incidence of vitamin D deficiency is increasing worldwide . The purpose of this study was to determine if supplementation with vitamin D2 from Portobello mushroom powder would enhance skeletal muscle function and attenuate exercise-induced muscle damage in low vitamin D status high school athletes . Participants were r and omised to Portobello mushroom powder ( 600 IU/d vitamin D2 ) or placebo for 6 weeks . Participants then completed a 1.5-h exercise session design ed to induce skeletal muscle damage . Blood sample s and measures of skeletal muscle function were taken pre-supplementation , post-supplementation/pre-exercise and post-exercise . Six weeks supplementation with vitamin D2 increased serum 25(OH)D2 by 9.9-fold and decreased serum 25(OH)D3 by 28 % . Changes in skeletal muscle function and circulating markers of skeletal muscle damage did not differ between groups . In conclusion , 600 IU/d vitamin D2 increased 25(OH)D2 with a concomitant decrease in 25(OD)D3 , with no effect on muscular function or exercise-induced muscle damage in high school athletes
