Summary

Prediabetes is a substantial problem in India not only because it itself can be associated with morbidities such as coronary artery disease but also because it is a point of important for prevention of diabetes. It is not clear if apparent accelerated aging in Indian population associated with heightened tendency for prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis and dys-metabolic state etc. could, besides lifestyle factors, be related to vitamin D deficiency, or ageing-related genes, or interaction between the two. This study is based on the assumption that the supplementation of vitamin d could lead to reversal to normal glucose regulation and may slow aging process in individuals with pre-diabetes.

Conditions

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Randomized control trial of vitamin D supplementation

This open-label randomized placebo-controlled prospective trial will be randomized into two groups; lifestyle modification counseling along with intervention with either vitamin D or placebo. Anthropometry, body composition, levels of vitamin D, blood glucose (including oral glucose tolerance test) and dietary assessments will be assessed periodically (every 3 months). In those having recurrent vitamin D deficiency, the course of vitamin D will be repeated. Diet and exercise will be recommended as per the regular norms for overweight and obese subjects. Clinical and dietary profile, sunlight exposure, glycemic and lipid profile other metabolic parameters, body composition, hand grip strength, leukocyte telomerase length and telomerase activity will be assessed at enrolment time and one-year intervention. As mentioned above, genes related to ageing will be evaluated. Effects on polymorphisms of pro-ageing genes will be assessed.
