They were randomly assigned to three groups receiving either vitamin D plus probiotics (30 women), only probiotics (29 women), or a placebo (28 women) for 6 weeks. Vitamin D and probiotic supplementation significantly reduced fasting plasma glucose (sugar) and insulin levels compared with the placebo group. It also decreased lipid levels (including total cholesterol) and inflammation parameters. HDL-cholesterol levels significantly increased. Moreover, supplementation of vitamin D and probiotics improved lipid and inflammation levels. In conclusion, vitamin D and probiotics have beneficial effects on different metabolic factors in women with gestational diabetes. More details can be found in the study.<\/p>\n<h3>References<\/h3>\n<p>Jamilian, Amirani, Asemi<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><a style=\"color: #5aadcb;\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30459099\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Link to article &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary This study assessed the effects of a combined vitamin D and probiotic supplementation on gestational diabetes. 87 women with gestational diabetes participated in the study.
