Vitamin D Injections
Coventry
Vitamin D is completely different than most other vitamins. It is a steroid hormone produced from cholesterol when your skin is exposed to the sun. For this reason, vitamin D is often referred to as “the sunshine vitamin.”
However, sun exposure rarely provides adequate vitamin D, making it necessary to obtain it from supplements or your diet. Yet, only a handful of foods contain significant amounts of this crucial vitamin, and deficiency is very common.
Benefits of Vitamin D:

Reduced risk of osteoporosis, falls, and fractures. Higher doses of vitamin D can help prevent osteoporosis, falls, and fractures in older adults
