Vitamin D can help in the treatment of diabetes

Scientists say that Vitamin D can help in the treatment of diabetes. Scientists have said that Vitamin D can help in treating bad beta cells in the pancreas, which can help to produce, store and release hormones insulin. With this, he can pave the way for a new approach to the treatment of diabetes. When beta cells become inactive, then the body can not make insulin to control blood glucose and the level of glucose can rise to the hazardous level.

In the US the researchers of the Salk Institute accomplished their goal by using an unexpected source vitamin D Vitamin D proved beneficial in the treatment of damaged beta cells in cells and mouse models. Ronald Evans of the Salk Institute said that we know that diabetes is a disease caused by inflammation. In this study, we recognized Vitamin D receptor as an important modulator of both swelling and beta cell survival. Zong Wei, a research associate at the Salk Institute, said that this study started by looking at the role of vitamin D in beta cells.
