-Sampling method of this study is simple random sampling, so that the selected units have equal chance to be selected. Select either through the lottery or through the use of random numbers table. We will use the lottery method so that we will have two boxes for our execution, and will be used in two colors. The green color for the intervention group and the orange color for the control group are considered. 30 green paper, 30 orange paper for women in a box and 30 green paper, 30 orange paper for men in another box. The doctor gives a sheet to each patient that has criteria for entry provided there is no exit criteria. The patient is referred for further investigation to a questionnaire who is not known about the presence of the patient in the control group or intervention. after the patient is confirmed by the other criteria on the basis of other criteria, is confirmed in terms of the presence of symptoms. For each patient, demographic information and MNA questionnaire are completed. The height and weight of individuals are also measured.The height of the people is measured in the form of standing, without shoes and with a wall hanging seka in cm.The weight of people with a minimum of clothes and without shoes and heavy accessories such as cell phones and bags, is measured with a scalable scale in kilograms and a precision of 500 grams.And finally referred to the doctor for a free visit.At the start of the study each patient is given a vitamin D supplement (Zahravi Company) on a weekly basis of 50,000 units and placebo is given to control group for 12 weeks (3 months).Six weeks after the start of the project, the patients were re-examined to receive a 5-day antibiotic regimen of Anti-Helicobacter pylori (PPI and amoxicillin and tinidazole and levofloxacin). At the same time, the intervention group are evaluated about the toxicity of serum vitamin D level and patients with serum vitamin D level above 100 are excluded from the study. Patients who do not follow this diet for any reason (antibiotic complications, intolerance of the drug ...) are excluded.After 3 months from oral administration of vitamin D or about 6 weeks after the completion of the anti-hereditary bacterial diet in patients, , each of the two groups is subjected to the challenge of helicobacter pylori eradication through a fecal hollybucher pylori test (UBT Urea Breath Test). Also, the clinical symptoms of patients are recorded in each of the two groups and due to these symptoms, they are interviewed and examined.
