TL;DR: The increase in consumption of HFCS has a temporal relation to the epidemic of obesity, and the overconsumption of H FCS in calorically sweetened beverages may play a role in the epidemic.

Hypovitaminosis D is associated with insulin resistance and cell

TL;DR: In this paper, the relation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations to insulin sensitivity and cell function was investigated, and the results showed that 25-OHD concentration was positively correlated with ISI (P 0.0001) and negatively correlated with 1st and second-phase insulin responses (1stIR and 2ndIR).
