A member asked:
What are the signs of vitamin d insufficiency? i think i may have this bcoz i always stay at home during morning and don't encounter sunlight
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ill-health: About half of north americans are vitamin d deficient nowadays, largely from "healthy lifestyles" that avoid sun exposure and vitamin-d enriched dairy products. Beyond general failure to enjoy maximum energy and athletic ability, lack of vitamin d causes the bones to be soft and become injured slightly, causing unexplained body pain. Please get tested & get a little sunlight regardless.
