RESUMO
India is a heliophobic country; despite ample sunshine, almost 490 million people are vitamin D deficient in the country. Additionally, the Indian diet has not been successful in providing the daily need for vitamin D, leading to a vitamin D deficiency. The need to fortifying food with vitamin D has been raised several times. Besides, there have been discussions about whether vitamin D is a hormone or a vitamin? In this review, the authors have reviewed vitamin D deficiency and its status in India, assessment and screening, the role of vitamin D in various disease conditions, dosage recommendation and regimen.

RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To study the pharmacological action of Qiweikaixin Granules.METHODS:Brain injured-olfac?tory bulb damage type was adopted,and the rats were divided into normal control group,pseudo-operation group,model group,hydrochloric acid clomipramine group and Qiweikaixin Granules(high,moderate,mild dosage)group,the behaviors of each group was observed,the contents of adrenocorticotrophic hormone corticotrophin(ACTH)and cortisol(COR)in plasma were also observed.RESULTS:In both the open field test and the heliophobic test,the behaviors of the model group had obvious changes;both the Qiweikaixin Granule group and the hydrochloric acid clomipramine group significantly resisted the change of behaviors of rats;the contents of ACTH and COR in the plasma of the model rats group increased significantly(P
