Telomere attrition Human Randomized controlled trial

Abstract

The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL; NCT 01169259) was a randomized clinical trial in 25,871 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or fish oil (1 gram of omega-3 fatty acids) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and stroke in people who do not have a prior history of these illnesses. This ancillary study is being conducted among participants in VITAL-CTSC cohort and will examine whether vitamin D or fish oil supplementation has beneficial effects on cellular aging.
