Vitamin D Deficiency, Smoking, and Their Impact on Weight and Obesity: A Review

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency and smoking are two factors increasingly linked to weight gain and obesity, both of which are major global health issues. Vitamin D is essential for numerous physiological processes, including bone health, immune function, and metabolic regulation. Smoking, while primarily associated with lung and cardiovascular disease, also has complex effects on body weight and fat distribution. This review explores the connections between vitamin D deficiency, smoking, weight, and obesity, summarizing findings from recent research on how these factors may influence each other and impact overall health.

Keywords: Vitamin D, Smoking, Health concern , Obesity.
