Vitamin D3 Injections

VITAMIN D3 INJECTIONS

VITAMIN D, IT CHANGES EVERYTHING

Vitamin D regulates the function of a variety of tissues. In fact there are specific Vitamin D receptors in almost all the tissues in our bodies. In addition to maintaining healthy calcium levels, Vitamin D also regulates hormone secretion, and keeps the immune system robust. From the prevention of certain cancers to the lowering of blood pressure in someone with hypertension, Vitamin D is essential for maintaining optimal health, and/or healing some diseases.

LOW VITAMIN D IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:

Osteoporosis and osteomalacia (fractures)
Cancers; including breast, prostate and colon
Hypertension
Heart disease
Insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome
Depression
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
Facial hair and acne
Migraines
Lowered resistance to influenza and viruses
Pain and muscle ache

RISK FACTORS FOR VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY:

Dark skin- produces less Vitamin D than lighter skin living North of 35 degrees latitude
Aging- less Vitamin D conversion with age
Sunscreen- using SPF 8 reduces production of Vitamin D by 95%
Inflammatory Bowel Disease- reduces Vitamin D absorption
Obesity- Vitamin D is easily stored in the body, being absorbed directly into fat cells from the intestine
Low Estrogen levels
