Vitamin D Deficiency

A lack of vitamin D can lead to a number of health problems, the most serious of which is osteoporosis. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, so a deficiency can lead to weak bones and an increased risk of fractures.

Other potential problems associated with low levels of vitamin D include:

· Rickets in children – a condition that results in soft, weak bones and can cause bowlegs, knock knees, and curved spine

· Skeletal pain and muscle weakness

· Depression

· Poor immunity – making you more susceptible to infections such as the flu or colds

· High blood pressure

· Increased risk of some types of cancer, such as ovarian cancer
