Vitamin D levels correlate with exercise capacity in adults with CHD
In conclusion, vitamin D levels were similar between CHD patients and controls, but vitamin D insufficiency is common and linked to reduced exercise capacity in CHD. Further research is needed to determine whether vitamin D supplementation combined with exercise could be beneficial in CHD with vitamin D insufficiency.
