Vitamin D Deficiency

Overview

Vitamin D deficiency is an extremely common condition that affects bone strength, muscle function and overall hormonal health. With accurate testing and appropriately dosed supplementation, levels can be corrected and maintained effectively.

Symptoms

• Persistent fatigue
• Bone or muscle pain
• Frequent minor illnesses
• Low mood

Causes & Risk Factors

Vitamin D deficiency is commonly caused by limited sun exposure, insufficient dietary intake, malabsorption conditions, or a higher body weight, since vitamin D is fat-soluble and less bioavailable in that case.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis is confirmed through a serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D blood test, which measures the amount of vitamin D circulating in your body.

Treatment Options

Treatment is tailored to your lab results, and may include:

• Supplementation dosed according to your lab levels
• Dietary guidance
• Periodic re-testing to confirm correction
