Vitamin D deficiency may signifcantly contribute to type-1 diabetes risk: Research
Low levels of vitamin D may increase a person's risk of developing type 1 diabetes, according to a study conducted by researchers from Harvard School of Public Health and published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
