For years researchers have proclaimed vitamin D as one of the most important
supplements to help individuals achieve optimal health. Vitamin D, also known as
the sunshine vitamin, possesses many benefits, and may now alleviate certain
diabetic complications.
New research has revealed that vitamin D may help to prevent clogged arteries
in those suffering from diabetes. The Journal of Biological Chemistry
recently published a study led by Carlos
Bernal-Mizrachi, MD, in which subjects who had sufficient amounts of vitamin D
in their blood were, to a large extent, less likely to develop clogged arteries,
which are typical in diabetics.
“We looked at blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes control, body weight and
race. But only vitamin D levels correlated to whether these cells stuck to the
blood vessel wall.”
It was also observed that vitamin D was the only determining factor in the
disability of the cells to adhere to the walls of blood vessels, but this only
happened in diabetics.
Due to this research, it’s important for those suffering from diabetes to
know the health benefits of vitamin D supplementation and to incorporate it into
their daily diet. Vitamin D can help to regulate the disease and help prevent
its progression.
