Blunted seasonal variation in serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D and increased risk of osteomalacia in vegetarian London Asians

Article Abstract:

A study was done on the blunted seasonal variation in serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D and increased risk of osteomalacia in vegetarian London Asians. Results show that seasonal changes in 25-OH D in Asian residents in England can achieve the same peak levels as the indigenous white population. It was further shown that seasonal responses were blunted in vegetarian Asians leading to lower peak values compared with whites or non-vegetarians.
