Not only a 'sunshine vitamin': Why low Vitamin D can worsen Diabetes and Cholesterol
The pancreas contains Vitamin D receptors, which enable Vitamin D to affect insulin production, as well as the muscle and fat tissues where insulin performs its actions. Studies performed in laboratory settings and medical research facilities, show that pancreatic beta cells generate insulin more efficiently, when Vitamin D reaches adequate levels and when body tissues improve their ability to receive insulin signals
