Both Easy and Beneficial to Raise Vitamin D Levels
It’s a world-wide epidemic: vitamin D deficiency. 14% of the world population has poor vitamin D levels. (1) One published report states that it affects 1 billion people worldwide. (2) Low vitamin D status is linked to a varied assortment of diseases. Bettering vitamin D levels is beneficial and easy…if vitamin D supplementation is followed. Most Chiropractic Clinic encourages our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients to check and work to raise as necessary their vitamin D levels. Most Chiropractic Clinic is certain that positive health benefits will ensure from this effort.
DISEASES LINKED TO LOW VITAMIN D LEVELS
A widespread vitamin D deficiency is correlated with many diseases. The incidence of cancers like lung, pancreatic, colorectal, kidney, breast is associated with low vitamin D levels. Diabetes, rickets, rheumatic arthritis, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer diseases, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, and fractures in adults are as well. (1, 2, 3) Vitamin D participates importantly in calcium homeostasis, skeletal metabolism, and the function of immune, cardiovascular and reproductive systems. (2) Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is also research-connected to vitamin D status and bone mineral density. (3) Vitamin D3 supplementation is effective in its care. Checking the occurrence of osteopenia/osteoporosis in these patients is the test as to the effectiveness of the treatment. (4) Most Chiropractic Clinic notes that this is interesting as these two conditions are also identified as being affected by vitamin D status too. Murfreesboro chiropractic care at Most Chiropractic Clinic benefits Murfreesboro chiropractic patients with these conditions.
BENEFITS OF RAISING VITAMIN D LEVELS
Supplementing those who take antidepressants with vitamin D is shown to improve the antidepressive effect. Researchers suggest that vitamin D may be beneficial for other such conditions beyond just depression like schizophrenia, cognitive disturbances, attention deficit disorder, and autism. (1) Providing a daily level dose of vitamin D (1000 units/kg I.P.) to post-surgical back patients on day one through day 21 alleviates symptoms of neuropathic pain. (5) Most Chiropractic Clinic sees how these benefits are worth the work our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients would take on to raise poor vitamin D levels.
HOW TO RAISE VITAMIN D LEVELS
A study of healthy young women revealed that taking calcium plus vitamin D (1500 IU) by those with less than 20ng/L or 800 IU of vitamin D by patients with levels of more than 20 ng/L. Both witnessed their vitamin D levels raise. The rise was witnessed within the first 30 days of the study for those taking calcium plus vitamin D. A thought-provoking side finding in this study: It’s difficult to get people to do what is recommended! Only 67 of the 106 study women did what they were to do for the three months of the study! (6)
