Vitamin D is commonly known for its effects on bone metabolism. However, due to the presence of specific receptors of this vitamin in several regions of the body, the low serum levels of Vitamin D have been associated with several types of pathological conditions, among them the Metabolic Syndrome. Several studies have pointed to the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D and Metabolic Syndrome in the elderly. Thus, the present study carried out a systematic review of the literature in the LILACS, SciELO and MEDLINE databases from 2008 to 2018 to verify the association between these variables, specifically in the elderly population. The analysis of the articles found pointed to an association between hypovitaminosis D and the Metabolic Syndrome when all indicators of this syndrome were analyzed together. When the indicators were related in isolation to hypovitaminosis D, this association could not be confirmed, provoking the need for new studies in this area, mainly among the elderly.
