Well, low Vitamin D levels have been linked to *development* of Type 1 in research lately. It makes sense if you look at where the highest rates of Type 1 are - Scandinavia, Seattle. I don't think they know anything further about it, though.

I know that in Seattle people are at a high risk of not getting enough Vitamin D, so it's recommended that we supplement.
