Vitamin D deficiency: what’s the deal?
Are you bothered by signs of depression? Do you ever feel weak, low or broken? If yes, then what can you do in order to overcome such a feeling? Chances are you start listening to music, exercise/workout, and in extreme cases, consult a psychologist. You are what you eat and it’s well known that diet has a profound effect on our physical and psychological health. Considering this, did it ever cross your mind that vitamins or their lack thereof could lead to depression? Yes, it’s true that some vitamins can in fact affect your mental health too.
With a rising number of depression cases, ways to cure depression are increasingly being explored. Recent studies have suggested that Vitamin D deficiency can cause depression. The conventional medical world has overlooked depression as a problem that can be suppressed by drugs. However, the effect of allopathic medicine can only last for some time before the patient realizes that the symptoms never really go away. They remain hidden under the surface, ready to explode at the right trigger.
Vitamin D is produced in our body when we expose our skin to direct sunlight. It performs many functions like absorbing calcium (for strong bones and muscle contraction), keeping the immune system healthy, and triggering the production of “feel good” chemicals called Serotonin. Serotonin is a chemical that controls your mood patterns, sleep patterns, and sex drive.
It has been found that in older adults, deficiency of Vitamin D and high blood levels of a hormone secreted by the parathyroid glands may increase their risk of falling prey to depression. However, more research has to be done to ascertain the fact. It could be an important discovery as Vitamin D deficiency is fairly easy to treat. Treatment of Vitamin D deficiency merely requires the patient to spend some time out in the open. Vitamin D is a natural reaction and is made by your body when the suns rays hit your skin. It is important to remember that depression affects many realms of a person, including: mental, physical, social, and spiritual. Therefore, an approach including treatments encompassing every aspect of a person’s life is required.
Since Vitamin D deficiency is overcome by being active and out in the sun, a chiropractor or wellness expert can come in handy to help you move you in the right direction. This is the holistic and proactive approach to diseases. The fundamental principle of chiropractic services is centered on having a properly working nervous system. As you know, the nervous system runs and communicates with your entire body. People choose a chiropractor over allopathic medication because it is a drug free and non-surgical method of finding and fixing the root of your problems.
