Study Summary
Type 2 diabetes is more common among African Americans than Caucasians. African Americans are also at a higher risk for lower levels of vitamin D compared to other ethnic groups. The investigators don't yet know if there is a connection between not having enough vitamin D and type 2 diabetes in African Americans. Researchers have found that the less vitamin D Caucasians had the higher the chance they would have type 2 diabetes but it is less clear if this is the case for African Americans. The investigators want to better understand how vitamin D status and diabetes risk are linked in African Americans. Also, the investigators want to see if supplementation with vitamin D will improve your blood pressure, blood sugar, \& insulin. All of these are in some way related to diabetes. The investigators want to measure changes in blood sugar \& blood pressure in people who do not have diabetes with the hope of learning new information to help treat those that do have diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that vitamin D status is related to diabetes risk measured by hemoglobin A1c (a test of glucose level over time), fasting glucose and insulin in non-diabetic African American adults and that body weight status may affect vitamin D status in response to vitamin D supplements compared to placebo.
