MILLIONS of people may be at serious risk of ill health because of low levels of vitamin D caused by a lack of sunlight.
Poor levels of the “sunshine vitamin” is putting people in danger of developing type 2 diabetes, researchers have found.
A landmark study in Australia, the largest of its kind, found people with high levels of vitamin D are less likely to develop it.
This could lead to at-risk patients using supplements along with diet and exercise to prevent it. Pathologist Dr Ken Sikaris, from Melbourne, co-author of the study, said: “It’s hard to underestimate how important this might be.”
However experts advised caution. Dr Victoria King, of Diabetes UK, said: “There is growing evidence that shows an association between low levels of vitamin D and an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes but it is important to note that whether this actually causes Type 2 diabetes is still unknown.
“It is not possible to recommend supplements to reduce the risk based on the results of this study and people should not see this as a quick fix.

Bill Gates in global push to vaccinate every child on the planet
(NaturalNews) Microsoft guru Bill Gates is busy rallying the troops to bring about what he calls "vaccine equity," which is his plan to vaccinate every single child in the world. Manipulating the heart strings of his listening audience, Gates stated at a recent Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI) conference that "rich" kids take for granted the vaccines they receive, and that now is the time to provide the same vaccines for the world's poorest children.
"It's now that we're gonna start to get the last two vaccines that rich kids take for granted, the pneumococcal and rotavirus, and over these next five years, get them out to every child everywhere," said Gates. "That means for the first time ever that we have equity in vaccines."
