Recent studies have suggested that there might be a link between people's levels of vitamin D, and depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Researchers from Warwick University studied 3,262 people aged between fifty and seventy from Beijing and Shanghai. They tested their levels of vitamin D and used questionnaires to measure their levels of depression. The study found that there was no clear association between vitamin D levels and depression symptoms.

I don't think there are any relevance between Vitamin D and depression. Since Vitamin D does not regulate any mood hormones. So yeah, it's unrelated.
Thanks for your comment Chris. There have been a few studies that have linked vitamin D with depression although obviously this one would tend to argue against this. But I think there will have to be a bit more research before they completely rule out a link.

Ahem, Guest, YOU need to get your facts straight. Studies have proven that those in older generations tend to suffer from depression. Please take a look at many of the statistics, especially those found in MMPI-2 results. I am guessing you are one of the older generation and do not like the stereotype.
I agree with the information posted in this blog that depression is linked to worse outcomes in people who suffered with heart attack as well smoking. So I think that Stop Smoking tips can help you create a good Stop Smoking plan and lifestyle changes that could lead to a healthier, smoke-free life.
I think there is a direct relation between depression and alcoholism. People who are depressed are more prone to take up alcohol. So we must have robust plans for Alcohol Treatment Rehab, as well.
This is a ver yimportant study as it reflects the causes of depresison to deep details. One must also have a look at the study index in Israel, I suggest.
It is really a new thing to know that there might be a link between people's levels of vitamin D, and depression and seasonal affective disorder. I do believe that eating habits may also be connected somehow. So Eating Disorder treatment should also be a priority.
I agree that there are a lot of reasons for the people who take up drugs and succumb to depression. I think celebrate recovery is very important in such scenarios.
Interesting post and I am amazed to know that the study found that there was no clear association between vitamin D levels and depression symptoms. People should fund such studies and they can even donate a car.
