Vitamin D is an essential vitamin that plays an important role in many essential physiological functions of the body. Vitamin D helps regulate and absorb essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus in the body.
Low immunity
The body is susceptible to colds, flu or repeated infections that can be signs of vitamin D deficiency. This vitamin plays an important role in supporting the immune system to function effectively and helping the body fight bacteria and viruses. When deficient, the natural protective barrier weakens, making you more susceptible to disease than usual.
Loss of bone density
Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium better, thereby keeping bones strong. When vitamin D is deficient, the ability to absorb calcium decreases, causing bones to gradually lose weight, weaken and increasing the risk of osteoporosis over time.
Muscle pain
Fatigue, lethargy and insomnia can appear when the amount of vitamin D in the body decreases. This can cause pain and reduce muscle strength.
