A member asked:
I have a reading of 13; for vitamin d. could that cause loss of appetite?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps indirectly: VIt. D deficiency has many symptoms but poor appetite is not a classic symptom. However, it can cause depression and depression can be associated with poor appetite. Adults need 5-8000 iu of D3 a day to achieve optimal levels of 50-80. See http://tinyurl.com/zzpfon8 and http://tinyurl.com/2chkcer A more common cause of poor appetite is zinc deficiency. Try zinc picolinate 30 mg/day.
