Summary
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to endothelial dysfunction in adults. Obese adolescents have a high prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency as well as evidence of endothelial dysfunction. Our hypothesis is that supplementation of Vitamin D deficient adolescents with Vitamin D would lead to improvement in endothelial dysfunction.
