Summary
Brief summary
The part A of the Safe-D study involves recruitment of participants into a cross-sectional study in order to investigate the association of vitamin D (25-OHD) levels with clinical health indices and related laboratory measures: musculoskeletal health (bone density, bone turnover markers, muscle function); mood/mental health; body composition and weight; and atopic/allergic symptoms. This study recruited 411 young healthy female aged 16 to 25 years old and living in Victoria, Australia through Facebook advertisement. Wide range of data were collected through completing on line survey questionnaires, attending site visit and wearing of a UV dosimeter.
