A vitamin D deficiency while pregnant could increase the chance of children developing multiple sclerosis (MS) in later life, says a new study published this week in the journal
The results of this new study by the Harvard T.H. Chan School
of Public Health add to the growing body of research that vitamin D
levels during pregnancy could have an effect on children's health.
For the study, the team looked at 193 individuals -- 163 of them female. They had all been diagnosed with MS and had mothers who had taken part in the Finnish Maternity Cohort -- a nationwide biorepository that has collected and stored prenatal serum samples since 1983 in order to study and maintain the populations' health and prevent disease.
