Affordable. Simple. Life-Affirming. Your bones help you move, give you shape and support your body. They are living tissues that rebuild constantly throughout your life. During childhood and your teens, your body adds new bone faster than it removes old bone. After about age 20, you can lose bone faster than you make bone. To have strong bones when you are young, and to prevent bone loss when you are older, you need to get enough calcium, vitamin D, and exercise. You should also avoid smoking and drinking too much alcohol. Bone diseases can make bones easy to break. Different kinds of bone problems include NIH: National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Also called: Hypovitaminosis D, Low Vitamin D Vitamin D deficiency means that you are not getting enough vitamin D to stay healthy. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Calcium is one of the main building blocks of bone. Vitamin D also has a role in your nervous, muscle, and immune systems. You can get vitamin D in three ways: through your skin, from your diet, and from supplements. Your body forms vitamin D naturally after exposure to sunlight. But too much sun exposure can lead to skin aging and skin cancer, so many people try to get their vitamin D from other sources. The amount of vitamin D you need each day depends on your age. The recommended amounts, in international units (IU), are People at high risk of vitamin D deficiency may need more. Check with your health care provider about how much you need. You can become deficient in vitamin D for different reasons: Some people are at higher risk of vitamin D deficiency: Talk with your health care provider if you are at risk for vitamin D deficiency. There is a blood test which can measure how much vitamin D is in your body. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a loss of bone density, which can contribute to osteoporosis and fractures. Severe vitamin D deficiency can also lead to other diseases. In children, it can cause rickets. Rickets is a rare disease that causes the bones to become soft and bend. African American infants and children are at higher risk of getting rickets. In adults, severe vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia. Osteomalacia causes weak bones, bone pain, and muscle weakness. Researchers are studying vitamin D for its possible connections to several medical conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, and autoimmune conditions such as multiple sclerosis. They need to do more research before they can understand the effects of vitamin D on these conditions. There are a few foods that naturally have some vitamin D: You can also get vitamin D from fortified foods. You can check the food labels to find out whether a food has vitamin D. Foods that often have added vitamin D include Vitamin D is in many multivitamins. There are also vitamin D supplements, both in pills and a liquid for babies. If you have vitamin D deficiency, the treatment is with supplements. Check with your health care provider about how much you need to take, how often you need to take it, and how long you need to take it. Getting too much vitamin D (known as vitamin D toxicity) can be harmful. Signs of toxicity include nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, constipation, weakness, and weight loss. Excess vitamin D can also damage the kidneys. Too much vitamin D also raises the level of calcium in your blood. High levels of blood calcium (hypercalcemia) can cause confusion, disorientation, and problems with heart rhythm. Most cases of vitamin D toxicity happen when someone overuses vitamin D supplements. Excessive sun exposure doesn’t cause vitamin D poisoning because the body limits the amount of this vitamin it produces.

Debljina uzrokuje manjak vitamina D Poznato je da debjina utječe na utječe na razvoj dijabetesa tipa 2, srčanih bolesti i određenih oblika raka U nedavnom izdanju časopisa PLoS Medicine objavljena je studija koja upozorava da debljina može uzrokovati manjak vitamina D. Ova je studija, koju su proveli istraživači okupljeni u zajedničkoj suradnji pod imenom D-CarDia u okviru Britanske zaklade za srce (British Heart Foundation), prva povezala visok indeks tjelesne mase (BMI) s niskim razinama vitamina D. Studija je obuhvatila više od 42.000 ljudi iz 21 zemlje, a unutar nje istraživači su pokušali prepoznati sve genetske varijacije kojr bi mogle biti povezane s indeksom tjelesne mase i vitaminom D kako bi bili sigurni da nijedan drugi čimbenik nije utjecao na rezultate. Visok indeks tjelesne mase povezan s niskim razinama vitamina D Istraživači su otkrili da je povezanost između visokog indeksa tjelesne mase i niskih razina vitamina D svojstvena svim demografskim skupinama. Svako povećanje indeksa tjelesne mase za 10 posto uzrokovalo je padom razine vitamina D od 4,2 posto. „Pokazali smo da je povezanost između indeksa tjelesne mase i vitamina D prisutna kod svih bijelaca Sjeverne Amerike i Europe bez obzira na dob ili spol. Dokazali smo i da povećanje indeksa tjelesne mase dovodi do smanjenja vitamina D, a time i da pretilost predstavlja rizik za nedostatak vitamina D", izjavili su autori, podsjećajući kako je vitamin D nužan za zdravlje kostiju i sprečavanje bolesti poput raka, dijabetesa i visokog krvnog tlaka. Nedavno istraživanje provedeno na Sveučilištu u Kopenhagenu otkrilo je kako niske razine vitamina D mogu povećati rizik obolijevanja od srčanih bolesti i prerane smrti. „Naša studija ističe nužnost povećanja razine vitamina D kod pretilih osoba, kao i važnost praćenja i tretiranja nedostatka vitamina D kako bi se smanjili nepovoljni učinci pretilosti na zdravlje. Smanjenje pretilosti u populaciji trebalo bi dovesti i do smanjenja učestalosti nedostatka vitamina D", izjavili su autori istraživanja. Debljina i niske razine vitamina D povezane su s rizikom od dijabetesa Moguće je i da bi pretilost mogla utjecati, osim na smanjenje razine vitamina D, i na razvoj dijabetesa tipa II. Istraživači su otkrili da je rizik za razvoj inzulinske rezistencije veći kod osoba koje su i pretile i imaju nizak vitamin D, nego kod osoba kod kojih je samo jedan od tih dvaju čimbenika izražen. Shaum Kabadi i njegov tim sa Sveučilišta Dextrel otkrili su kako pretili ljudi s normalnom razinom vitamina D imaju čak 20 puta veći rizik za razvoj inzulinske rezistencije u usporedbi s ostatkom populacije. No, rizik kod pretilih ljudi s niskom razinom vitamina D veći je čak 32 puta.
