1.Introduction
Obesity,whichisdefinedastheextraaccumulationoffatin body,canincreasetheriskofmanydiseasessuchascardiovas- culardisease,bloodlipiddisorders,typeIIdiabetesmellitus,and hypertension[1–3].In Iranbytheyear2013 theprevalenceof overweightandobesityhasbeenreportedas38.8%and10.2%for maleand34.5%and18.5%forfemalerespectively[4].Becauseof vitaminDstorage in deeppartsof fat massesin obesepeople which can make difficult releasing this vitamin into blood circulation,obesitydecreasethevitaminDserumlevelinthose people[5].Theassociationbetweenincreasedbodymassindex
(BMI)andlowserum25-hydroxyvitaminDreportedinprevious studies [6–8]. Obesity leads to low serumvitamin D (OH) 25 followed by secondary hyperparathyroidism [9–11]. Increased intracellularcalciumbyPTHleadstoinhibitionoflipolysisand stimulating the fatty acid synthesis and consequently lipid accumulation in adipocyte will increase [12,13]. In the other hand, based on somestudies, treatment by vitaminD supple- mentationthrough thefacilitationofthecalciumentranceinto adipocytecanstimulatelipogenesisandaccumulationof fat in body [14,15].Therefore, the role of vitamin D in body weight regulationisunclear,asseveralstudieshavedemonstratedusing of vitamin D supplementation cause to weight loss in obese people,whereassomestudiesshownoeffect[16,17].Regarding this point both healthy and vitamin D deficientsubjects have participated inpreviousstudiesit mightaffected theresultsof study,sinceitis possiblethatvitaminDsupplementationonly

2.Subjects,materialsandmethods
This study was conducted as a controlled double blind randomizedclinicaltrial.ThesamplesizewascalculatedbyType Ierror(
a
)=0.05,TypeIIerror(b
)and effectsize=0.6for eachgroupequalto38individuals.Subjectswereselectedvoluntarily throughadvertisementonhospital,clinicandmedicalcollegesand among overweight and obese women visited the specialty nutritionclinicsofKhorramabadShahidRahimihospital.
TheeligiblecriteriawereBMIover25kg/m2andtheageranging from18to70yearsold.The exclusioncriteriawere:history of diseasessuchasbonediseases,diabetes,thyroiddiseases,kidney orliverdiseases,cardiovasculardisease,alsoconsumingvitamins andminerals,consuminganticonvulsantdrugs,drugscontaining estrogen and progesterone, corticosteroids, having special diet, hormonaltherapyandweightlossto10%withinthethreemonths beforestudy.Atthebeginningofthestudyanefficient medical history including the history of heart diseases and consuming drugswas done.Thecriteria forinclusion andexclusiontothis studywereconsidered.Then,heightandweightweremeasured and body mass index was calculated. After confirming the overweightandobesityinthesesubjects,otheranthropometric indicesincludingwaistandhipcircumferencealsoweremeasured.
Subject’sbloodsampleswerecollectedafter12hfastingand serum25-hydroxyvitamin D3levelsweredetermined for allof them.ThosewhohadvitaminDdeficiency(serumvitaminDlevels
<30ng/mL)wereexcludedandwereintroducedtoendocrinolo- gistfortreatment.InsubjectswithserumvitaminD30ng/mL, otherrequiredvariablesincludingserumcalcium,serumphosphor and PTH hormone were measured by using the same blood samples.
SubjectshavingvitaminDdeficiencywerecalledandconsulted about their treatment. Among 210 referred participants, 76 subjectswhomettheaboveinclusioncriteriawereselectedand randomlydivided intotwo groups;vitamin Dsupplementation groupandplacebogroup.TheinterventiongrouptookvitaminD supplementationin theformof pearls50,000UI colecalciferol, onceper25daysinfourdifferentdoses.Theplacebogrouptook placeboforthreemonth(fromthebeginningofSeptembertothe beginning of December 2013). To get assured from using the supplementationandplaceboinappointedtime,thesubjectswere called.
The subjects in control group received placebo containing lactoseexactlythesameasthepearlsofvitaminDinsize,form, packingandname.Thenumberofconsumingand timespanof usingtheplaceboincontrolgroupwasexactlythesameaspearl vitaminin interventiongroup.At thebeginningof thestudy, a dietaryintakedatawascollectedwith3day24-hdietaryrecall (including 2 weekdays and 1 weekend).The dietarydata were convertedtoenergyandnutrientsusingthesoftwareNutritionist IV(version4.1,1997;FirstDataBank,TheHearstCorporation,San Bruno,CA).

Duringthestudyfoursubjects,oneforpregnancy&threefor personalreasonswithdrewfromtheinterventiongroup.Alsosix subjectswithdrewforpersonalproblemsinplacebogroup.Finally, 34subjectsininterventiongroupand32subjectsincontrolgroup continuedtheircooperationforthreemonths.Nosideeffectsfor vitamin D supplementation or lactose-contained placebo were reportedinthisstudy.Table1showsthebaselinecharacteristicsof studyparticipants.Datahadshownnodifferenceintheaverage intakeofprotein,vitaminD,calciumandphosphorbetweentwo groups.However,theaverageintakeofenergyandfatinvitaminD groupweresignificantlyhigherthancontrolgroup(Table1).
MeansSDofanthropometricandbiochemicalindicesinboth groups before and after treatment, and anthropometric and biochemicalindiceschangesbetweenvitaminDgroupandplacebo group are presented in Table2. For assessing the interaction betweenweightandenergyintakeineachgroupaftertreatment the regression analyses was used.

4.Discussion
Inthisstudy,anthropometricindicessuchasweight,waistand hip circumference and BMI were significantly reduced in interventiongroupcomparedwiththeplacebo group.Theoreti- cally, vitamin D affects weight through different mechanisms.
Variousclinicalstudiesindicatethereductionriskofoverweight byincreasingthecalciumintakes[18],whilstvitaminDincreases theabsorptionofcalciumfromintestine.Incontrast,theprevious studieshaveprovedthatPTHhormoneleadstotheaccumulation of adipose tissue in body through increasing the intercellular absorption of calcium, whilst supplementation withvitamin D leads to reduction of serum PTH [12]. Alsoit was shown that Supplementation with vitamin D via increasing the 1,25- dihydroxyvitaminDcausestheelevatingofintercellularabsorp- tionofcalciumandthereforecanculminatetooverweight[19].

Inanotherstudy,Mahdavietal.assessedtheeffectofvitaminD supplementation on serum leptin levels and the amount and compositionofbodyfaton53diabeticpatientsduring12weeks.
They used of 400 IU vitamin D with 1000mg calcium for supplementation.Attheendofstudy,BMIininterventiongroup reducedfrom27.28.5to26.28.3,and incontrolgroupBMI increasedjust a bit, but there wasn’tany significant difference beforeand after treatmentneitherwithin nor betweengroups [21].Inourstudy,BMIandweightdecreasedsignificantlyafter3 monthsin interventiongroup.The difference in theamountof receivedvitaminDsupplementationcanjustifytheoutcomesin bothstudies.It’salsomerittomentionthatourstudywasdoneon more subjects and without any background diseases that can justifywhytheresultsofthesetwostudiesaredifferent.
The effect of vitamin D supplementation on weight and adiposetissue investigated bySalehpoor et al., and77 partic- ipantswererandomlydividedintovitaminD(25
m
gperday)andcontrolgroup(placebo)for12weeks.Attheendofintervention, weight loss in vitamin D group and control group were ( 0.31.5) and (– 0.11.7) respectively. But, there wasn’t statisticallysignificantdifferencebetweenthetwogroups.They alsofoundthat waistcircumference wasreducedin vitaminD group but increased in control group, for Hip circumference;
although decreased in vitamin D group, but there was not significantdifferencebeforeandafterintervention.Theirresults indicatedthat vitaminD supplementation (daily intake for 12 weeks)doesn’taffectwaist andhipcircumference[22].Inour study,therewasa statisticallyobvious difference betweenthe two groups in weight and waist and hip circumference. One reasonforthedifferencebetweenthesetwostudiescanbethe lowerdoseofvitaminDassupplementationinSalehpoor'sstudy, whereasthevitaminDdoseistwotimesmoreinourstudy.Also theparticipantsinSalehpoor'sstudyhadtheaverageserum25- hydroxyvitamin D levels=16.72
m
g/ml and were vitamin Ddeficient.Buttheparticipantsinourstudyhad normalvitamin Dlevel(73.56
m
g/ml).ItseemsthatvitaminDsupplementation hasmoreeffectsonweightlossinparticipantswithnormalserum levelsof25-hydroxyvitaminD.InstudythatconductedbySneveetal.theeffectofvitaminD andcalciumsupplementationonweightlossin334overweight andobesesubjectsassessed.Inthisstudy20,000IUvitaminDwith 500mgcalciumwasusedtwiceaweekandfor12months.Atthe end,therewasn’tanysignificantdifferenceinweight,waistandhip circumference before and after treatment in both groups. The serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D increased and PTH level decreasedininterventiongroup,butserumcalciumdidnotchange [14].ParticipantsinSneve'setal.studyhadtheaverageofserum 25-hydroxyvitaminDlevelsequalto53.116.9beforetreatment that wasn’t in normal range (less than normal) whereas participantsin ourstudyhad normalserum25-hydroxyvitamin Dlevels.Duetothisfindingitseemsthatweightgainoccurredin vitaminDdeficiencystatus.
Caan et al.in a controlleddouble blindrandomizedclinical trial,evaluatetheeffectofcalciumandvitaminDsupplementa- tionanthropometric indicesof50–79yearsold women.Inthis study400IUvitaminDwasusedwith1000mgcalciumperday.
After three years treatment, women in intervention group showed a little but desirable and stable change in weight compared with the control group (average change = 0.13;
P=0.001).Thenparticipantswerefollowedfor 7years; women withlowerage(50–54)hadthemost weightgain(2.1kg) and were the only group which permanently had weight gain. In contrast older women (70–79) were the only group who had
weight loss permanently and had the most changes in their weight( 2.5kg).Generally,women’sweightincreaseduntilthe ageof60a littlebutpermanently,then itwould befixedfora periodoftimeandthenagaindecreasedfromthemiddletothe end of 60sand will becontinued tothe 70s. As a result the interventiongrouphadlessweighingthanthecontrolgroupand weren’tattheriskofbeingoverweight[23].Regardingtotime periodofourstudywhichlastedafterthreemonths,ifourstudy continuedthe same results could be achieved similar toCaan studybetweeninterventionandcontrolgroups.
Tocontrolthedietaryintakeduringthecurrentstudy,foreach personprescribedowndietandforassessingthedietadherence, theywereaskedand theiranswerbasicallywaspositive.Itwas askedfrom participantstohavethe samephysical activitiesas beforetreatment.Insubsequentvisiting,participantswereasked about increasingor decreasing theirphysical activities, sothat thosewithchangewerebeenomittedfromthestudy.
Somelimitationofthisstudyinclude:thelackofanypractical supervisiononparticipantsaboutalterationsintheirlifestylesand adherencetotheirprescribeddiet,andanotherlimitationisthat our population study weren’t checked about their sunlight exposure.
