Vitamin D3 increases plasma 25(OH)D levels, first phase of insulin secretion and decreases insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes A close link exists between vitamin D deficiency and diabetes mellitus risk. The presence of renal impairment will compromise the production of Calcitriol, and potentially further contribute to inadequate vitamin D signalling Calcitriol can be recommended for vitamin D deficiency in type 2 diabetes and obese patients.
