London: A study has shown that people who are on the verge of diabetes sooner or later get caught in its clutches. In this situation, this risk can be avoided to some extent by taking vitamin D supplements.

According to a report published February 7 in the Annals of Internal Medicine, if people with prediabetes increase their vitamin D intake, the risk of developing full-blown diabetes can be reduced by 15 percent.

There are currently millions of people across the world, including Pakistan, who are on the brink of diabetes and an important test for this is done through blood, which measures the level of glucose bound to hemoglobin. Vitamin D is found naturally in many foods and is also available in pill form. Also, spending time in the sun helps the human skin develop it naturally.

A link between vitamin D and blood sugar has already been discovered. This vitamin also improves insulin absorption and metabolism. In addition, experts have also considered the relationship between low levels of vitamin D in the body and diabetes.

For three years, experts have researched many volunteers and evaluated it for another year. Of the patients given vitamin D, 22 percent developed pre-diabetes, while 25 percent of the placebo group developed full-blown diabetes. Now if these statistics are brought to 100%, eating vitamin D can reduce the risk of going from pre-diabetes to diabetes by 15%.

Now, if it is implemented worldwide, vitamin D could prevent millions of people from developing diabetes every year.
