Summary

The investigators have previously completed a clinical trial with long-term vitamin D3 supplementation in healthy humans during a season with negligible ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) in terms of serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) increase. In this study (submitted, unpublished), a temporary increase was identified during the first three weeks. Individually, this temporary increase was found in 14 out of 19 participants. This phenomenon has not been described elsewhere in the literature. This could be possible due to less frequent sampling.

The investigators hypothesized that this phenomenon is actual and not an artefact.

The aim of this study was to investigate the serum 25(OH)D increase after short-term vitamin D3 supplementation in a new group of healthy participants with more frequent 25(OH)D sampling. Furthermore, to investigate the influence of sex, age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), number of fatty fish meals per week, 25(OH)D start level and 30 genetic parameters.

This is a single-centre, open and non-blinded clinical trial. No randomisation was used, as all participants received identical treatment. 25(OH)D sampling was increased from once a week to twice a week. Demographic data (gender, age, weight, height) was collected/measured and registered in prior to study start. The number of daily consumed fatty fish meals was recorded in a questionnaire.
