Inadequate dietary vitamin D or its deficiency leads to malabsorption of calcium. Nutritional disorder leads to the rare disease rickets, which causes bones to become soft and bend in children. In adults, vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia, which causes weak bones, bone pain and muscle weakness.
The body needs vitamin D to properly absorb calcium and phosphorus from the diet. However, keeping the right quantities of calcium and phosphorus in bones is challenging when vitamin D levels are low.
The two sources of vitamin D are-
- Natural sunlight
- Foods such as fish oil, Egg yolk and fatty fishes like salmon and mackerel
There are other disease conditions which lead to poor absorption of vitamin D-
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Celiac diseases
- Kidney problems
