Comparison of the effect of daily versus bolus dose maternal vitamin D 3 supplementation on the 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 to 25-hydroxyvitamin D 3 ratio
Supplementing lactating mothers with high doses of vitamin D can adequately meet vitamin D requirements of the breastfed infant. We compared the effect of bolus versus daily vitamin D dosing in lactating mothers on vitamin D catabolism. We hypothesized that catabolism of 25(OH)D to 24,25(OH) D would...

Summary: | Supplementing lactating mothers with high doses of vitamin D
can adequately meet vitamin D requirements of the breastfed infant. We compared the effect of bolus versus daily vitamin D
dosing in lactating mothers on vitamin D
catabolism. We hypothesized that catabolism of 25(OH)D
to 24,25(OH)
D
would be greater in the bolus than in the daily dose group.
Randomized controlled trial (clinicaltrials.govNCT01240265) in 40 lactating women.
Subjects were randomized to receive vitamin D
orally, either a single dose of 150,000IU or 5000IU daily for 28days. Vitamin D metabolites were measured in serum and breast milk at baseline, 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28days.
Temporal changes in the serum 24,25(OH)

ratio.
The concentration of serum 24,25(OH)
D
was directly related to that of 25(OH)D in both groups (r
