Dear Editor,
We wish to submit a new manuscript entitled Association Between Dietary Vitamin
D Intake and Clinical Symptoms of Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients for
consideration by the The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
We confirm that this work is original and has not been published elsewhere nor is it
currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.
In this paper, we describe the association between dietary vitamin D intake and
clinical symptoms in pulmonary tuberculosis patients . We found that patients with
mild symptoms have vitamin D intake greater than patients with more severe
symptoms. There has been no similar reports in Indonesia on this matter. Some of
the reports, report that there is a link between vitamin D serum levels and clinical
symptoms of the pulmonary tuberculosis patient. In this report we describe the
association between the amount of intake, because as a clinician, we should
educate people practicaly such as how to manage diet and lifestyle. Pulmonary
tuberculosis patients should have good dietary vitamin D intake. The paper should
be of interest to readers in the areas of clinical nutrition.
Please send all correspondence concerning this manuscript to me at
tedafaadhila@yahoo.com.
Thank you for your consideration of this manuscript.
Sincerely,

Teda Faadhila
