Is Staying Home Causing Your Vitamin D Levels To Drop?

By now we all know how dangerous coronavirus is. It is still sweeping across the globe with no signs of slowing down. We have all pinned our hopes on the invention of preventive vaccines as well as drugs that can kill this dreaded virus.

But until that happens, we will have to continue with social distancing and self-isolation. The whole country had been home-quarantined for more than 3 months. Even though the lockdown has been lifted, people continue to work from home wherever possible and only step out to purchase essentials.  

This could have an unpleasant side-effect – a deficiency of Vitamin D!

Staying home and suffering from Vitamin D deficiency  

So why is self-isolation likely to trigger a deficiency of Vitamin D in your body? It’s simple. You are staying home almost all the time and hardly going out during the day. While this is an absolute requirement, it is also depriving you of exposure to sunlight.  Most of the Vitamin D that we need is synthesized in our skin on sun exposure.

Sunlight is our chief source of Vitamin D. This particular nutrient is extremely vital for the health of our bones and teeth.

You see, your body needs Vitamin D to process calcium – the nutrient that strengthens your bone tissues.  Vitamin D increases the absorption of calcium in the intestines. Research has shown that vitamin D deficiency is also associated with increased risk of diabetes, infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, and even cancers.

What should you do to prevent Vitamin D deficiency

First of all, you need to know for certain if the Vitamin D level in your body is low. There are diagnostic tests that can determine your blood Vitamin D content.

Get tested right away, before bone problems set in. Take the Vitamin D3 test at PharmEasy to determine your Vitamin D levels in the blood.

The result of this test will tell you if your body needs more Vitamin D. If the number revealed by the test is too low, then you will have to take a rightful action.

What should you do after the test
