The primary objective of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial is to
determine the effect of vitamin D and calcium supplementation (800IU and 2000mg,
respectively) on biochemical indicators of nutritional status and bone health in military
personnel during Army basic combat training (BCT) and Air Force basic military training
(BMT).
The investigators hypothesize that daily supplementation with vitamin D and calcium during
military training will improve vitamin D status, stabilize PTH levels, and result in
improvements in markers of bone health. As a result of the investigators study design, the
findings will provide critically important data regarding the concentration of vitamin D in
blood necessary to stabilize PTH levels and to optimize bone formation during initial
military training.
