25-Hydroxyvitamin D, IGF-1, and Metabolic Syndrome at 45 Years of Age

Abstract

Serum 25(OH)D is inversely associated with metabolic syndrome, whereas the inverse association with IGF-1 was found only among those without hypovitaminosis D. These results suggest that metabolic syndrome prevalence is the lowest when both 25(OH)D and IGF-1 are high.
