 Researchers from the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston analyzed blood levels of vitamin D in 128 boys and girls with type-1 diabetes. The subjects ranged in age from about 10 to 13 years old. Only one of every four subjects had adequate levels of vitamin D. Three-fourths had low levels, and 15 percent had outright deficiencies.The researchers noted that a combination of low vitamin D and type-1 diabetes significantly increases the risk of bone fractures.
