Vitamin D

 

Q: Does vitamin D Deficiency causes obesity or does obesity causes vitamin D deficiency?

 

 

The answer is " obesity causes vitamin D deficiency for two reasons:

 

1. The obese teens absorb vitamin D into their fat stores rather than their blood stream, which makes it more difficult for them to metabolize.

2. The presence of fat tissues in large number may prevents or hinders the entry of the UV light into their sites to activate vitamin D .
