Scientists have not yet discovered whether vitamin D can treat or slow the progression of type 2 diabetes.

In the new study, the main indicator the scientists relied on was insulin sensitivity. However, the researchers also measured levels of insulin secretion, beta cell function, and blood pressure. 96 participants took part in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. None of the participants were taking medications for diabetes or interactions with vitamin D. The results of the study were published in the European Journal of Endocrinology.

In addition, this therapy has a beneficial effect on beta cell function. Interestingly, participants with the lowest insulin sensitivity at baseline benefited the most from vitamin D supplementation.

Yes, scientists have been able to establish a link between low levels of vitamin D and diabetes. However, the new question is how to overcome this problem? According to recent studies, vitamin D supplementation does not improve insulin sensitivity. However, these studies included people who had diabetes for a long time or who were not vitamin D deficient. Also, many studies only lasted a few weeks. With that in mind, a new study focused on the use of vitamin D supplements in patients newly diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes. The research lasted 6 months.
