Background: Ecological and observational studies suggest that low Vitamin D status could be associated with higher mortality from life-threatening conditions including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes mellitus that account for 60% to 70% of total mortality in high-income countries. We examined the risk of dying from any cause in subjects who participated in randomized trials testing the impact of Vitamin D supplementation (ergocalciferol (Vitamin D2) or cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) on any health condition.
