Is Vitamin D essential? It
sure is! Many
Vancouver 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 Vancouver chiropractor
works with so many of those bodily functions. Vancouver Spine Care Centre
encourages Vancouver chiropractic patients to incorporate vitamin D
in their diet and supplementation plan to safeguard their health, enhance
their health, and prevent issues that come with vitamin D
deficiencies. Vancouver 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 stem from15 vitamin D
deficiency. In spite of blood and urine levels of calcium, taking
a form of vitamin D (edecalcitol) helps amplify bone
mineral density and lessen the risk of
vertebral fractures. (1) 88% of Indian
women have vitamin D deficiency which potentially
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) Vancouver Spine Care Centre welcomes
its role in helping Vancouver back pain sufferers attain
as functional a life as possible which may involve instructing
patients to boost 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, impeded bone metabolism, and raised
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 raises the risk of back pain, particularly
in those who have higher pain intensity, angular instability, and past
such fractures and less disposed to exercising regularly. (6) Vancouver Spine Care Centre views these as
worthy causes to improve
vitamin D levels as part of the nutritional plan!
