Is Vitamin D essential? You bet it is! So many of us in Williamson are deficient in vitamin D, as many as 80% or more
in some places in the world! Vitamin D influences so
many bodily functions, and your Williamson chiropractor
takes care of so many of those bodily functions. Apple Country Chiropractic
encourages Williamson chiropractic patients to include vitamin D
in their diet and supplementation plan to protect their health, enrich
their health, and prevent issues that accompany vitamin D
deficiencies. Williamson chiropractic treatment plans are not just created
for back pain relief but also wellness lifestyle.
THE IMPACT OF VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY
Vitamin D deficiencies may well precede issues
like weakened mineralization and even myopathy. Low levels of vitamin D result
in decreased muscle strength, sarcopenia, functional limitation,
disability and falls and physical function in older adults. Osteomalacia
and rickets may also stem from15 vitamin D
deficiency. In spite of blood and urine levels of calcium, taking
a form of vitamin D (edecalcitol) helps increase bone
mineral density and lessen the risk of
vertebral fractures. (1) 88% of Indian
women experience vitamin D deficiency which potentially
increases the risk of development of osteoporosis and
pregnancy-related complications in the future. (2) Children with scoliosis of
mean age of 13.6 years before corrective spinal surgery are inclined
to have have low vitamin D levels. (3) Apple Country Chiropractic welcomes
its role in helping Williamson back pain sufferers achieve
as functional a life as possible which may involve directing
patients to improve their vitamin D levels.
PROTECT AND ENHANCE HEALTH WITH IMPROVED VITAMIN D LEVELS
Combining vitamin D and calcium with denosumab (a drug used
for osteoporosis treatment) combated the decrease in calcium instigated
by taking denosumab, stopped bone metabolism, and increased
bone mineral density. (4) Vitamin D protects against vertebral fracture in addition to sarcopenia and cardiovascular decline and enriches
muscle function and help bone. (5) Osteoporotic
vertebral fracture increases the risk of back pain, especially
in those who have higher pain intensity, angular instability, and past
such fractures and less prone to exercising regularly. (6) Apple Country Chiropractic views these as
worthy causes to correct
vitamin D levels as part of the nutritional plan!
