The highest prevalence of inadequacy of serum concentrations of 25(OH)D and greater severity of this deficiency in individuals with MUHO phenotype were observed. Low serum concentrations of this vitamin were associated, mainly, with insulin resistance. Monitoring the nutritional status of vitamin D in individuals with obesity that present with MUHO phenotype may contribute to minimize the occurrence and aggravation of diseases associated with obesity.
