Abstract
The association between bone mineral density (BMD) and serum25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D)
concentration is weak, particularly in certain races (eg, BlackAfrican vs Caucasian)
and in athletic populations. We aimed to examine if bioavailable vitamin D rather
than serum 25(OH)D was related to markers of bone health within a racially diverse
athletic population.
