Vitamin D status and optimal supplementation in institutionalized adults with intellectual disability Conclusions Vitamin D insufficiency was common in adults with ID living in nursing homes. Both oral and intramuscular administrations of vitamin D3 improved vitamin D status without adverse effects. The treatment response at 6 months was better in the PO group. High-dose intramuscular vitamin D3 injections may be a convenient way to maintain sufficient vitamin D status in adults with ID but further studies are needed to establish the optimal dose and interval as well as subsequent potential health benefits in these patients. Based on this study, vitamin D supplementation with per oral 800 IU/day is recommended to all adults with ID living in nursing homes.

Here's some food for thought: A study in the journal Nutrition and Dietetics showed overweight individuals do not metabolize fat as effectively as those as a healthier weight, but dietary protein can help improve the phenomenon. To counteract a fat-blazing slow-down due to your extra pounds, make sure you eat enough lean protein every day. The study found high protein meals (about 30%) improved the fat metabolization significantly. (If you're eating 1,500 calorie a day, you'll want to aim for about 100 grams of lean protein daily.)
