Vitamin D - the technical bit

  
Vitamin D reduced babies' risk of diabetes type 1
  • Babies who had been regularly given a recommended daily dose of 2,000iu of vitamin D had been 80% less likely to develop type 1 diabetes
  • Babies who had been suspected of having rickets at some time during the first year of life had been three times more likely to develop type 1 diabetes (rickets is linked to vitamin D3 deficiency) by the end of that year

The Finnish researchers followed the health outcomes of the 12,058 babies for the first year of their lives.
