The study was based upon a 2,000iu/day supplementation.
I would like to see a study that uses much higher dosage levels for overweight/obese individuals. I'd like to see the effects of high dose intravenous vitamin D, as well as high dose oral supplementation (20,000+ iu) for individuals with low blood serum levels. It's understood that vitamin d can be stored into fats, thereby reducing the amount of vitamin D that makes it into the blood system. Therefore, the effects this study points to may be related to an under dosing for overweight individuals.
I am interested in seeing a study focusing on the best methods to raise an individual's blood serum levels of vitamin D to at least 50 ng/mL.
