There is evidence that a higher level of this vitamin in the body leads to weight loss.
New studies by scientists show that higher levels of vitamin D in the body are associated with weight loss. People lose more weight and fat on their stomachs when their vitamin D intake is higher, and those who drink more milk can even double their weight loss. Milk contains both calcium and vitamin D, which in several studies have been linked to weight loss.
Tests on rats showed that they burn more calories when given large doses of vitamin D. A study in which 165,000 people showed that a 10% increase in body weight is associated with a 4% drop in vitamin D levels. The results showed that weight gain leads to a decrease in vitamin D, and a decrease in its level in obese people puts their health at an additional risk.
In a new study, scientists concluded that people with high levels of vitamin D lose 20 pounds more when they are on a diet, than people with a lower level. In this case, until 50% of the world’s population may be deficient in vitamin D. People get most of the vitamin D that they need from its production in the skin, which occurs when sunlight enters the skin. Diet can also provide the body. vitamin D – it is found in foods such as eggs and oily fish.
Dr. Elina Gipponen, co-author of the study, says:
“Vitamin D deficiency is a serious public health problem worldwide. Although many health reports have focused on insufficient exposure to the sun or excessive use of sunscreens, we must not forget that vitamin D deficiency is also caused by obesity. “Our study emphasizes the importance of monitoring and treating vitamin D deficiency in overweight or obese people to mitigate the adverse health effects caused by vitamin D deficiency.”
