Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), insulin resistance and hypovitaminosis D are common among individuals living with HIV. Low vitamin D (VitD) has been associated with insulin resistance and DM in the general population and more recently in the HIV infected population.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), insulin resistance and hypovitaminosis D are common among individuals living with HIV. Low vitamin D (VitD) has been associated with insulin resistance and DM in the general population and more recently in the HIV infected population. Our objective was to examine if the use of VitD3 supplementation could prevent the development of DM among patients with HIV infection.
