5 Telltale signs that you are deficient in Vitamin D

Often called the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D has an important role in keeping us healthy. Its deficiency can lead to multiple health issues including low immunity.

The deficiency of Vitamin D can make your bones weaker and lead to deformities. It can also lead to hair loss, muscle weakness and lethargy.

 Here are some early signs of vitamin D deficiency:

1. Obesity

Obese people are more likely to be deficient in Vitamin D as the fat cells prevent vitamin D from being released into the body.

2. Liver and kidney problems

Diseases related to the kidney and liver can be a sign that you are deficient in vitamin D. This suggests that not enough of it is available to be converted into a source of nutrition and energy for the body.

3. Muscle and bone pain

Weakness and pain in bones and muscles, deformities in joints and chronic backache can be common symptoms of vitamin D.

4. Lethargy

If you are eating healthy, resting well and still feel lazy and fatigued often, it can be an indicator of vitamin D deficiency.

5. Mood swings

Low vitamin D levels in the body can lead to stress and anxiety, which can lead to frequent mood changes.

If you suspect a vitamin D deficiency and experience any of these symptoms consult a doctor online. Book an instant appointment: https://qural.app/general-tele-consultation/
