Objective: We aimed to determine serum vitamin D levels and evaluate their relationship with anthropometric indicators and lifestyle habits in apparently healthy volunteers. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study (n=75), socio-demographic, anthropometric, and lifestyle habit-related data were collected. Serum vitamin D levels were determined with high performance liquid chromatography, food intake was measured by semiquantitative frequency and nutritional status was assessed by anthropometry. Chi-square test and also principal component analysis were used to analyze the relationship between some variables and vitamin D status. Spearman's test was used to determine correlations between quantitative variables. Results: 73% were women and 61% belonged to medium socio-economic level. Median vitamin D intake was 137 (83.1-227.3) IU/day. Based on body mass index (BMI), 44% individuals had overweight/obesity. The 68% exhibited deficient/insufficient vitamin D levels (Hypovitaminosis D). BMI classification and waist circumference (CW) were not related with vitamin D status; however, activities with higher sun exposure were highly related (p = 0.013). Sun exposure time explained variation in component 2 (16.60%), where most of the individuals with normal level were grouped. Sun exposure time was positively correlated with vitamin D status (r = 0.263; p = 0.023).Discussion: Excess weight and abdominal obesity are not always associated with hypovitaminosis D. Conclusions: The majority of individuals showed hypovitaminosis D but their status was not related with anthropometric indicators. A Sun exposure time was the only factor positively correlated with vitamin D status. 2023 artículo científico 2216-0973 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=359576405003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3595/359576405003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3595/359576405003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3595/359576405003/359576405003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3595/359576405003/movil https://doi.org/10.15649/cuidarte.2920 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3595 Revista CUIDARTE application/pdf Universidad de Santander Revista CUIDARTE (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.14
