IMPORTANCE OF VITAMIN D TO STAY FIT
Are you a vegetarian or one who travels a lot in closed vehicles? Then probably you don't get enough Vitamin D.
Osteomalacia or softening of the bones is usually caused by poor Vitamin D supplements. Though not as popular as osteoporosis this condition is also very limiting and highly incapacitating.
You might already know that animal foods and sunlight are the two natural sources of Vitamin D. Sometimes, other than poor sun exposure, low Vitamin D intake and malabsorption of the Vitamin by the intestines also result in Osteomalacia. Some other medical conditions like kidney failure, cancer. etc., can contribute to it too.
Sufferers experience bone pain (cracks in bone), muscle back aches, and stiffness most often in the lower part of the body when they move. You might have noticed some people walking with a rocking motion. This is due to osteomalacia. Certain other symptoms may also indicate osteomalacia including abnormal heart rhythms, numbness of limbs, spasms of limbs and the like. Such symptoms help doctors to diagnose mineral deficiencies. Vitamin D deficiency is also found to increase insulin resistance leading to the development of Type 2 diabetes.
Bones need constant renewal and replenishment with calcium, phosphate and Vitamin D. When this is sparingly received, bones start giving up. And without symptoms, osteomalacia remains hidden for a long time.
The sick, the elderly, those who wear clothing that prevents sun exposure, those who are lactose intolerant or dislike milk and milk products, those who are on a lacto vegetarian diet and those who get poor sunlight in their region often risk this condition.
Along with calcium and Vitamin D supplements, rest is crucial in the treatment of Osteomalacia. Weight bearing exercises are recommended depending on the condition of the sufferer.
Osteomalacia is a highly preventable condition. Eat Vitamin D rich foods like oily fish, egg yolks, milk and food products fortified with Vitamin D. Also, spend a few minutes under the sun everyday.
