Vitamin D promotes calcium absorption in the gut and maintains adequate serum calcium and phosphate concentrations to enable normal bone mineralization and to prevent hypocalcemic tetany (involuntary contraction of muscles, leading to cramps and spasms). It is also needed for bone growth and bone remodeling by osteoblasts and osteoclasts ...
9 Απρ 2023 · In the absence of vitamin D, approximately 10 to 15% of dietary calcium and 60% of phosphorus are absorbed. In the presence of vitamin D, this percentage of absorption is increased to 30% to 40% for calcium and 80% for phosphorus. In the kidneys, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin promotes calcium reabsorption.

17 Ιουλ 2023 · A circulating level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D greater than 30 ng/mL is required to maintain a healthy level of vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to an array of problems, most notably rickets in children and osteoporosis in adults.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that depends on the gut’s ability to absorb dietary fat. People who are obese tend to have lower blood vitamin D levels. Vitamin D accumulates in excess fat tissues but is not easily available for use by the body when needed.
With all of this information collectively, most experts now agree that vitamin D deficiency should be defined as a 25(OH)D of < 20 ng/ml. Vitamin D insufficiency is now recognized as a 25(OH)D of 21-29 ng/ml.
