Vitamin D is often known as the "sunshine vitamin," and for good reason — our bodies produce it naturally when exposed to sunlight. But many people, especially in urban areas or with indoor lifestyles, are unknowingly running low. And that can affect more than just your bones.
☁️ Common Signs of Vitamin D Deficiency:
-
Low Energy or Fatigue: Constant tiredness even with enough rest
-
Muscle Aches or Weakness: Feeling sore without intense activity
-
Frequent Infections: Getting sick more often than usual
-
Mood Swings or Irritability: Feeling low or anxious for no clear reason
-
Hair Thinning or Loss: Noticeable changes in hair health
🌞 How to Improve Your Vitamin D Levels:
-
Get regular sunlight exposure — 15 to 20 minutes, 3–4 times a week
-
Eat Vitamin D-rich foods like eggs, mushrooms, oily fish (like salmon), and fortified milk or cereal
-
Speak to your doctor about taking a supplement if needed
🧪 Bonus Tip:
You can easily test your Vitamin D levels with a simple blood test. It’s a small step that can make a big difference in how you feel every day.
