Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic diseases such as respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes cause 57% of all deaths globally. Chronic conditions can result in a variety of adverse health effects, such as depression and disability, can have an impact on wellbeing, and can also be costly. Vitamin D deficiency has been found to be associated with common chronic diseases such as bone metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes. Thus, the role and effect of vitamin D should be further explored. Studying risk factors based on vitamin D intake and metabolism may lead to novel and timely interventions.
Considering the success of the previous Special Issue, entitled "Role of Vitamin D in Chronic Diseases", we are pleased to announce that we are launching a second Special Issue on this topic. The objective of this Special Issue is to publish reviews, clinical trials or experimental studies that focus on the role of vitamin D in chronic diseases. Your expert contributions to this Special Issue of Nutrients are highly appreciated.
Dr. Jennifer Gjerde
Guest Editor
