Abstract

•45% of this Dutch older population had serum 25(OH)D concentrations <50nmol/L.•Only 6% of the participants with a vitamin D deficiency used vitamin D supplements.•Sun habits are still an important determinant of 25(OH)D status in older adults.•35% of the variation in serum 25(OH)D was explained by the determinants under study.
