Low Vit D can cause so many health realated disease conditions.  As a chiropractor in the Los Alamtios, I am seeing more than 40% of my patients Vit D deficent and they don't even know it!  They are not aware of it because they are not being tested by thier health care providers.  This Vit D defciency is also the national average we see acoss the US. 

Initial signs and symptoms can vary from:  fatigue, muscle weakness, bone pain, upper respiratory and chronic infections, high blood pressure, skin conditions, depression, insomnia, to general aches and pains.  

Your doctor should always check your blood level every 6-12 months and blood levels should be between 50-70ng/mL.  Do not accept from your doctor that your Vit D level is normal if it comes back below 40!!!   Insist on supplementation until levels raise to the normal values as stated.  

Again, what is the most important asset in your life?.....YOUR HEALTH!!!!

Our next blog will be on the importance of Vit K-2 with Vit D.
