Article Synopsis
- There is mixed evidence regarding vitamin D's impact on glycemic control, prompting a meta-analysis to evaluate its effects in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients.
- The analysis included 46 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with a total of 4,313 participants, revealing significant improvements in HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and HOMA-IR for those receiving vitamin D compared to the placebo.
- The findings suggest that vitamin D supplementation is particularly effective in individuals with low vitamin D levels, especially when administered in higher doses over a shorter timeframe, though the results vary widely across different studies.
