Measuring the vitamin D levels of 121 asthmatic adults, the study found that 91 percent of those that were deficient suffered from severe asthma, and just 50 percent of those with sufficient levels had severe asthma.  Those with higher vitamin D levels also had better lung function, as measured by forced expiratory volume in 1 sec, the researchers found.  \u201cWe demonstrated that vitamin D insufficiency is frequent in asthmatic adults and that it is predictive of the risk of severe asthma,\u201d the researchers wrote. \u201cWe suggest a randomized clinical trial to determine whether supplementation with vitamin D can reduce or modify asthma severity in adults.\u201d  Click here to view the study.  &nbsp;  &nbsp;  SmartTan.com news articles regularly report medical and scientific information to keep you abreast of current events related to UV light.
