Arterial stiffness and autonomic nervous system activity will be correlated with vitamin D status in a cross-sectional study. Subjects with vitamin D deficiency (25-hydroxy vitamin D < 50 nmol/L) will be restudied 4-6 weeks after replenishment of vitamin D stores (100000 IU vitamin D orally in two doses two weeks apart).
