Vitamin D Deficiency
Although we can produce vitamin D in our skin through exposure to sunlight, we cannot do so nearly as effectively as we would like. Scientific studies show that half of us have insufficient vitamin D levels in summer. In winter, up to 90% of people in the Czech Republic do not have enough of this most important fat-soluble vitamin. The sun does not shine often enough, and we spend too much time indoors.
Positive Effects of Vitamin D
Insufficient vitamin D levels can lead to problems with the bones, teeth, muscles, or even our immune defenses. The minimum recommended level is 75 μmol/l, while the optimal level is above 110 μmol/l. Without taking dietary supplements, it is very difficult to reach this level. As a result, most Czechs suffer from a deficiency throughout the winter—and even in summer. The role of vitamin D, not only in our immune defenses, is fundamental.
Role in Aging
Vitamin D contributes to maintaining normal muscle, bone, tooth, and immune system function. Its deficiency leads to weakening of the muscles and bones. A strong musculoskeletal system is precisely what extends the amount of life spent in good health. Without healthy physical activity, it is not possible to slow aging.
Findings and Scientific Studies
Most residents of Bohemia do not have sufficient vitamin D levels. Many patients take vitamin D, but not enough of it. Recommendations based on Czech legislation state that patients should take 2,000 IU once every two days. For the vast majority of patients, however, this dosage is insufficient; in reality, it is necessary to take 2,000 IU (one capsule) every day, usually from the beginning of September through the end of June.
According to the scientific paper by Behnaz et al., vitamin D deficiency is associated with muscle fiber atrophy (reduced strength), an increased risk of chronic musculoskeletal pain, sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass), and falls.
