Vitamin D: Important for bones, muscles and immune system

Vitamin D plays a crucial role in health.It supports the immune system, helps maintain normal bones and promotes normal muscle function.Vitamin D is also important for cell division, the absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus, and for normal calcium levels in the blood.A sufficient supply of vitamin D is therefore crucial for well-being.

Are you well supplied with vitamin D?

Around 50% of people in Germany do not have enough vitamin D.The body only absorbs a small amount of vitamin D through food, as only a few foods contain this vitamin in large quantities.The body can produce vitamin D itself through sun exposure in the skin.However, since vitamin D stores in Germany can only be replenished through sun exposure in the summer months, taking vitamin D supplements is a good way to keep vitamin D levels at an optimal level.Factors such as frequent stays indoors, avoiding the sun through clothing or sunscreen creams, and taking certain medications can have a negative impact on vitamin D supply.With increasing age, the body's ability to produce vitamin D itself decreases.People with darker skin also have skin that is less permeable to UV-light, which makes the production of vitamin D more difficult.

Signs of a vitamin D deficiency

Signs of a vitamin D deficiency include reduced muscle strength, muscle and joint pain, a weakened immune system and an increased susceptibility to infections.Anyone who takes medication long-term should keep an eye on their vitamin D levels, as certain medications can accelerate the breakdown of vitamin D in the body.

Daily is better than weekly

For the effect of vitamin D on the immune system, taking it daily is better than taking it weekly.Vitamin D is only kept available in the body for about 24 hours.Daily consumption ensures that both the paracrine effect, which supports the immune system, and the endocrine effect, which has a positive effect on calcium homeostasis and bone health.Therefore, a daily vitamin D administration is superior to a weekly one.
