Controly Vitamine D Rapid Test
 
Vitamin D is a group of fat-soluble steroidal organic chemicals that has a primary role in calcium-phosphate metabolism. Vitamin D3 is naturally produced in human skin by exposure to ultraviolet light, while vitamin D2 is mainly obtained from food.
Vitamin D is transported to the hepatic, where it is metabolised to 25-hydroxy vitamin D-25(OH)D. The concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (including D2 and D3) in the blood is considered the best indicator of vitamin D levels.
Vitamin deficiency has been linked to various serious diseases including: osteoporosis, osteomalacia, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease, complications of pregnancy, diabetes, depression, stroke, autoimmune diseases, influenza, various cancers, infectious diseases, Alzheimer’s disease, obesity, etc.
Therefore, detecting vitamin D – 25(OH)D levels is now considered necessary. Maintaining sufficient vitamin D levels is important not only to improve bone health, but also to improve overall health and well-being
