Original Source: Vitamin D status and metabolic syndrome in Asian Indians.
In this study, we aimed to estimate serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH-D) in Asian Indians and test for association between 25-OH-D levels, insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (MS). Serum 25-OH-D was measured in a cross-sectional sample of 441 Indians, aged 39.7±12.8 years (237 men and 204 women) with 27.9% prevalence of MS. Vitamin D insufficiency (12.5 to
