Direct link between low vitamin d levels glucose metabolism study

People who have low levels of vitamin D are more likely to have diabetes, regardless of how much they weigh, according to a new study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. The Endocrine Society’s "Scientific Statement on the Non-skeletal Effects of Vitamin D" outlines studies that have found that people who have low levels of vitamin D are more likely to be obese. They also are more likely to have Type 2 diabetes, prediabetes and metabolic syndrome than people with normal vitamin D levels.
