Vitamin D helps the body regulate calcium and is essential for bone health, immune support, muscle function and cell growth. Deficiency is common affecting around 1 billion people globally due to the lack of sun exposure, diary choices and lifestyle habits. A lack in Vitamin D is also linked to various health issues such as fatigue, cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment and even cancer. Vitamin D deficiency often shows no symptoms but it may include:
- Fatigue
- Poor sleep
- Muscle weakness
- Bone ache
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Hair loss
