Auburn Chiropractic Treatment Plan Incorporates Vitamin D

Is Vitamin D important? It sure is! So many of us in Auburn are deficient in vitamin D, as many as 80% or more in some areas in the world! Vitamin D impacts a variety of bodily functions, and your Auburn chiropractor works with so many of those bodily functions. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. encourages Auburn chiropractic patients to include vitamin D in their diet and supplementation plan to safeguard their health, enrich their health, and prevent issues that come with vitamin D deficiencies. Auburn chiropractic treatment plans are not just created for back pain relief but also wellness lifestyle.

THE IMPACT OF VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY

Vitamin D deficiencies may well lead to issues like weakened mineralization and even myopathy. Low levels of vitamin D result in decreased muscle strength, sarcopenia, functional limitation, disability as well as falls and physical function in older adults. Osteomalacia and rickets may also result from vitamin D deficiency. In spite of blood and urine levels of calcium, using a form of vitamin D (edecalcitol) helps boost bone mineral density and reduce the chance of vertebral fractures. (1)  88% of Indian women have vitamin D deficiency which potentially increases the risk of development of osteoporosis and pregnancy-related complications in the future. (2) Children with scoliosis of mean age of 13.6 years before corrective spinal surgery tend to have low vitamin D levels. (3) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. appreciates its role in helping Auburn back pain sufferers achieve as functional a life as possible which may include instructing patients to boost their vitamin D levels.

PROTECT AND ENHANCE HEALTH WITH IMPROVED VITAMIN D LEVELS

Combining vitamin D and calcium with denosumab (a drug used for osteoporosis treatment) combated the reduction in calcium instigated by taking denosumab, stopped bone metabolism, and increased bone mineral density. (4) Vitamin D protects against vertebral fracture in addition to sarcopenia and cardiovascular decline and improves muscle function and help bone.  (5) Osteoporotic vertebral fracture raises the risk of back pain, particularly in those who have higher pain intensity, angular instability, and prior such fractures and less prone to exercising regularly.  (6) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. sees these as good causes to improve vitamin D levels as part of the nutritional plan!
