Study conducted in diabetic (type II) women with insulin resistance.
A month of vitamin D supplementation at 1332 IU was able to increase insulin secretion by 34.3%. This increased secretion was significantly correlated with serum vitamin D levels.
After one month, a 21.4% decrease in peripheral insulin resistance was also seen.
