“…It has been demonstrated that obese individuals have lower circulating concentrations of (OH)D25 compared to non-obese individuals. However, it can be said that body fat mass and percentage of body fat are strong predictors of vitamin D status in different individuals 6 .…”

Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis and bone health. Recent research suggests that vitamin D may also have an impact on lipid metabolism, specifically the level of circulating lipids in the blood. We aim to investigate it role among healthy participate. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 15,600 patients who were referred to the laboratories of university hospitals. We measured the serum levels of Vitamin D as well as triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL, and HDL using ELISA. We found that the mean serum level of Vitamin D was 40.31 ± 20.79 ng/mL. Of the participants, 16.7% had a serum level of Vitamin D less than 20 ng/mL, 57.7% had a level between 21 and 40 ng/mL, and 13.5% had a level between 41 and 60 ng/mL. Additionally, 12.2% had a level greater than 60 ng/mL. We performed a one-way analysis of variance and found that as the serum level of Vitamin D increased, the mean LDL level decreased significantly. Our study provides evidence of a significant relationship between serum levels of Vitamin D and LDL levels in patients. The findings suggest that vitamin D status may play a role in regulating lipid metabolism and may have implications for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of this relationship and to determine optimal levels of vitamin D intake for maintaining lipid profiles.

Background:: Growth trajectories during the first 1,000 days from conception to 2 years influence human capital, predicting intelligence, skills and health in adults. Summary:: This review describes current evidence on the impacts of adverse pregnancy outcomes such as low birth weight, preterm birth, small for gestational age, and infant nutrition on long-term neurodevelopment and summarizes interventions that have proven to be effective in improving child development and further impact human capital. To date, no globally standardized measurements of child development in low-medium-income countries exist, and comparisons among studies using different developmental scales are challenging. In the perinatal period, birth weight, gestational age at delivery and elevated placental blood flow resistance have been identified as the main risk factors for global neurological delay, poor neurosensory development and cerebral palsy. Although these adverse neurological outcomes have decreased in developed settings, it is still a problem in low-resource populations. Nutritional deficiencies are the main drivers of developmental impairment, notably iron, iodine and folate deficiencies, and environmental stressors during pregnancy such as air pollution, exposure to chemicals, substance abuse, smoking, and maternal/parental psychiatric disorders can affect the developing brain. Interventions aiming to improve maternal macro- and micronutrient status, delayed cord clamping, exclusive breastfeeding and nurturing care have demonstrated to be effective strategies to prevent perinatal complications known to affect child development.

Optimal nutrition, balanced in calories and containing all essential nutrients in adequate amounts, is an important condition for the proper fetus development and pregnancy complications prevention. Vitamins and minerals play an essential role in the regulation of metabolism, cell proliferation and differentiation, growth and development of the fetus. They also affect the mother’s body, preventing the development of pregnancy-related diseases. Despite the obvious need for vitamins and minerals for the health of the pregnant woman and the fetus, questions remain about the advisability of additional intake of certain micronutrients and their dosages during pregnancy. Our article is devoted to the analysis of recent data on the intake of vitamins A, D, folic acid, iron, calcium and magnesium during pregnancy and their effect on the fetus and mother.
