A new study found that “nearly three-quarters of youths with diabetes insufficient in vitamin D.” The study will appear in the January 2009 issue of The Journal of Pediatrics.

Calcium is needed throughout our lives for strong bones and teeth, but is especially important in children. Now that this information is known, I wonder if we will see documentation of diabetics breaking bones or developing other related problems.

This is also evidence of just how much diabetes affects our bodies. It takes a toll, more than we even know at times.
