Question: What causes low vitamin D levels apart from lack of sunlight!?
I am always outside walking my dog, but have just been told I have severely low levels of Vitamin D!. What am I doing wrong!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Vitamin D deficiency can result from inadequate intake coupled with inadequate sunlight exposure, disorders that limit its absorption, conditions that impair conversion of vitamin D into active metabolites, such as liver or kidney disorders, or, rarely, by a number of hereditary disorders!. Deficiency results in impaired bone mineralization, and leads to bone softening diseases, rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults, and possibly contributes to osteoporosis!. Research has indicated that vitamin D deficiency is linked to colon cancer; conflicting evidence links vitamin D deficiency to other forms of cancer!.
you can also get Vitamin D from other food sources too, like milk, fish, cereal, mushrooms, eggs, bread, yogurt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
