Vitamin D deficiency is common among certain risk groups in Sweden, and occurs approximately in every tenth pregnant woman.The aim of the randomized double-blind controlled trial Pregnancy vitamin D intervention (PREDIN) is to investigate the dose of vitamin D supplementation required in achieving vitamin D sufficiency (25OHD ≥50 nmol/l) in pregnant women at risk of vitamin D deficiency. In addition, the investigators aim to examine if the overall vitamin D status and vitamin D intake have increased since the expanded vitamin D fortification program was initiated in year 2020.
