Vitamin D3, also called the “sunshine vitamin,” is an essential nutrient for our bodies.
Given its nickname, you probably heard growing up that the best way to get enough Vitamin D is to spend time in the sun. While it’s true that soaking up the rays can be an effective way for our bodies to absorb the vitamin, this is typically not enough for the average person to sustain sufficient levels of vitamin D. Researchers have actually found that over a billion people worldwide are vitamin D deficient, some more severely than others.
Here’s why vitamin D3 is essential for our bodies and how you can identify symptoms of vitamin D deficiency.
Why Is Vitamin D3 Important?
Vitamin D is a crucial element in our bodies’ absorption and regulation of the calcium and phosphate we consume from our diet. This absorption process promotes the circulation of vitamin D in our bloodstream and is responsible for delivering other essential health benefits in many areas of the body, including:
- Strengthens bones and muscles
- Promotes a healthy immune system
- Supports heart health
- Assists weight loss
- Improves mood
What Are Symptoms of Vitamin D Deficiency?
Possible symptoms of vitamin D deficiency include (but are not limited to):
- Depression
- Greater risk of infection
- Aching pain in bones, primarily those in legs and back
- Fatigue
- Bone-thinning diseases such as osteoporosis
- Weight gain
- Hair loss
