Vitamin D deficiency link to breast cancer

According to a study conducted by the Moores Cancer Center at the University of California, San Diego and the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine there may be a correlation between breast cancer and vitamin D Deficiency. The study states that people living in regions of the planet closer to the poles are exposed to less sunlight on average, specifically ultraviolet B rays, and therefore, less vitamin D. Cedric F. Garland, professor of Family and Preventaive Medicine in the UCSD School of Medicine said, "This is the first study to show that higher serum levels of vitamin D are associated with reduced incidence rates of breast cancer worldwide.... incidence was highest at the highest latitudes in both hemispheres." The Breast Journal suggested that improving vitamin D levels could reduce cancer incidence and mortality at low cost by taking supplements. Further research on supplemention and diet for this condition were recommended.
