The need for vitamin D to prevent rickets was the drive for selection of lighter skin color in temperate climates. Anthropologists also know that as human populations developed more sedentary lifestyles, this coincided with a decline in bone quantity, quality, and fracture resistance. Since osteoporosis occurs after the reproductive years, there is no way that natural selection could have adapted our biology to prevent it. However, osteoporosis can be largely prevented by optimizing physical activity, and the vitamin D-related factors of environment, and nutrition. The role of vitamin D3 in osteoporosis is conclusively established from a very simple meta-analysis of the four randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials into the effect of ...
