Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether sun-dried sakiika (dried squid) can improve vitamin D status in individuals with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency and thereby serve as a practical dietary option for improving vitamin D nutritional status. In addition, this study aims to evaluate whether urinary 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration, measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), can be used as a biomarker of vitamin D nutritional status in addition to the conventional assessment based on serum 25(OH)D concentration.
