Is Vitamin D important? You bet it is! Many
Burlington and Hamilton folks are deficient in vitamin D, as many as 80% or more
in some areas in the world! Vitamin D impacts a variety of bodily functions, and your Burlington and Hamilton chiropractor
treats so many of those bodily functions. Spinal Care Clinic
encourages Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic patients to include vitamin D
in their diet and supplementation plan to safeguard their health, enrich
their health, and prevent issues that come with vitamin D
deficiencies. Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic treatment plans are not just devised
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 reduced muscle strength, sarcopenia, functional limitation,
disability as well as falls and physical function in older adults. Osteomalacia
and rickets may also result from vitamin D
deficiency. Despite blood and urine levels of calcium, taking
a form of vitamin D (edecalcitol) helps boost bone
mineral density and lessen the risk of
vertebral fractures. (1) 88% of Indian
women have vitamin D deficiency which possibly
raises 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) Spinal Care Clinic appreciates
its role in helping Burlington and Hamilton back pain sufferers realize
as functional a life as possible which may include instructing
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 produced
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 prior
such fractures and less prone to exercising regularly. (6) Spinal Care Clinic views these as
worthy motives to correct
vitamin D levels as part of the nutritional plan!
