Is Vitamin D important? It
sure is! Many
Preston folks are deficient in vitamin D, as many as 80% or more
in some areas in the world! Vitamin D influences a variety of bodily functions, and your Preston chiropractor
works with so many of those bodily functions. Chiropractic Associates
encourages Preston chiropractic patients to include vitamin D
in their diet and supplementation plan to protect their health, enhance
their health, and prevent issues that come with vitamin D
deficiencies. Preston 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 decreased muscle strength, sarcopenia, functional limitation,
disability as well as falls and physical function in older adults. Osteomalacia
and rickets may also be caused by vitamin D
deficiency. In spite of blood and urine levels of calcium, using
a form of vitamin D (edecalcitol) helps increase bone
mineral density and lessen the risk of
vertebral fractures. (1) 88% of Indian
women have 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) Chiropractic Associates embraces
its role in helping Preston back pain sufferers achieve
as functional a life as possible which may include directing
patients to increase 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 reduction in calcium instigated
by taking denosumab, impeded bone metabolism, and raised
bone mineral density. (4) Vitamin D protects against vertebral fracture as
well as sarcopenia and cardiovascular decline and improves
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 routinely. (6) Chiropractic Associates views these as
good reasons to improve
vitamin D levels as part of the nutritional plan!
