Vitamin D intake during the first 4  years and onset of asthma by age 5: A nested case‐control study
ConclusionsIncreased vitamin D intake in childhood, particularly intake at 1 and 2 years of age, may increase risk of childhood asthma. This might reflect a true effect or residual confounding by lifestyle or environmental factors. Repeated assessment of vitamin D intake allowed evaluation of the longitudinal and age‐dependent impact of vitamin D on the risk of asthma. Further longitudinal studies are required to confirm or question these findings.
