The Claim
Whole-body vibration training combined with oral vitamin D supplementation is associated with improved physical function in older adults with osteosarcopenia, as measured by chair stand, walking speed, and SPPB.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
When older people with weak bones and muscles do vibration exercises and take vitamin D pills, they tend to get better at standing up from a chair, walking faster, and moving around more easily.

What the research says
1 studyThe study gave older adults with weak bones and muscles both vibration training and vitamin D pills, and found they could stand up from a chair faster, walk quicker, and move better — just like the claim said.
