BACKGROUND:Weight loss (WL) is associated with a decrease in calcium absorption and may be one mechanism that induces bone loss with weight reduction. OBJECTIVE: Because vitamin D supplementation has been shown to increase true fractional calcium absorption (TFCA), the goal of this study was to examine the effect of vitamin D during WL or weight maintenance (WM). DESIGN: A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind 6-wk study was conducted in 82 postmenopausal women [BMI (in kg/m(2); ±SD): 30.2 ± 3.7] with 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations <70 nmol/L during either WL or WM. All women were given 10 μg vitamin D(3)/d and 1.2 g Ca/d and either weekly vitamin D(3) (375 μg) or a placebo equivalent to 63 μg (2500 IU)/d and 10 μg (400 IU)/d, respectively. We measured TFCA with the use of dual-stable isotopes, 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone, estradiol, calcitriol, and urinary calcium at baseline and 6 wk in weight loss and vitamin D(3)-supplementation (WL-D; n = 19), weight maintenance and vitamin D(3)-supplementation (WM-D; n = 20), weight loss and placebo (n = 22), and weight maintenance and placebo (n = 21) groups. RESULTS: WL groups lost 3.8 ± 1.1% of weight with no difference between vitamin D(3) supplementation and the placebo. The rise in serum 25(OH)D was greatest in the WL-D group (19.8 ± 14.5 nmol/L) compared with in WM-D (9.1 ± 10.3 nmol/L) and placebo groups (1.5 ± 10.9 nmol/L). TFCA increased with vitamin D(3) supplementation compared with placebo treatment (P < 0.01) and decreased during WL compared with WM. Serum 25(OH)D or 1,25-dihyroxyvitamin D did not correlate with TFCA. CONCLUSION: These data show that vitamin D supplementation increases TFCA and that WL decreases TFCA and suggest that, when calcium intake is 1.2 g/d, either 10 or 63 μg vitamin D/d is sufficient to maintain the calcium balance. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00473031.
