Abstrakt:	A research study conducted at King Faisal University in Saudi Arabia explored the relationship between vitamin D levels and metabolic markers in Saudi adults. The study found that vitamin D deficiency is widespread in Saudi Arabia and is strongly associated with worsened metabolic markers, including diabetes and lipid profiles. The researchers suggest that addressing vitamin D deficiency through screening and correction could be a cost-effective approach to combating the diabetes epidemic and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease in the region. The study primarily focused on the Saudi population, particularly women and adults over 45 years old. [Extracted from the article]
