I have a vitamin d deficiency and i am anemic, is there any cause to this?

May be malabsorption: Deficiency of two of more nutrients suggests impairment of absorption of food stuffs. Some people with mild celiac disease present with iron deficiency. It would be prudent to consult a gastro-enterologist for an evaluation of your stomach and intestine.
