Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Approximately 200 families corresponding to 800 persons are included in the study. The study investigate the efficacy of vitamin D fortification of bread and milk on vitamin D status in serum. Participants receive milk and bread twice a week. Half of the participants receive vitamin D fortified products and the other half similar non-fortified products. The study starts in September and runs for 6 months during winter, the period where it is not possible to produce vitamin D in the skin through sunlight exposure. The hypothesis is that the usual fall in vitamin D status can be prevented by vitamin D fortified food.
