Cholecalciferol vs. calcifediol supplementation on visceral adiposity in people with obesity: a real-world retrospective study
Calcifediol supplementation, combined with a MHD, is more effective than cholecalciferol in improving vitamin D status and reducing visceral adiposity in subjects with obesity. These findings support the recommended use of calcifediol supplementation in obesity-related vitamin D deficiency management.
