BELLY FAT AND VITAMIN D
There is a link between obesity and lower vitamin D showing that the type and location of fat, especially belly fat, decreases levels of vitamin D. In women, both total and abdominal fat are associated with lower vitamin D levels, but abdominal fat has the greatest impact. In men, however, lower vitamin D is significantly linked with fat in the liver and abdomen.
Vitamin D is good for our immunity system. Individuals with larger waistlines are at a greater risk of developing multiple diseases and of shortening their lifetime. Only produced in our skin on contact with sunlight, food sources of vitamin D may be mackerel, sardines, codfish, herring, all fish oils, milk and egg yolk.
