VITAMIN D TEST

A Vitamin D Test is a blood test used to measure the level of vitamin D in the body, which is important for maintaining healthy bones, teeth, muscles, and the immune system. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus, which are essential for bone strength and growth. Low levels of vitamin D can lead to bone pain, muscle weakness, fatigue, and conditions such as osteoporosis or rickets. Doctors may recommend this test for people with limited sun exposure, poor diet, bone disorders, or symptoms of deficiency. The test helps diagnose vitamin D deficiency and guides treatment through supplements, dietary changes, and proper sunlight exposure to maintain overall health.
