Solving Persistent Low Vitamin D Levels

When dealing with a complex situation where multiple factors may be contributing to low vitamin D levels despite consistent supplementation. Here's a breakdown of potential reasons and suggestions for addressing the issue:

1. Vitamin D Absorption Issues

• Digestive Health: Sudden digestive issues and a diagnosis of NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) may affect your ability to absorb vitamin D properly.
• Gut Health Support: Consider improving gut health through probiotics, digestive enzymes, and consulting a gastroenterologist.

2. Supporting Nutrients

• Magnesium: Crucial for converting vitamin D into its active form.
• Vitamin K2: Works synergistically with vitamin D for calcium metabolism.
• Zinc and Boron: Play important roles in vitamin D metabolism.

3. Vitamin D Supplementation

• Higher Dosage: May need temporary increased dosage under medical supervision.
• Different Formulation: Consider liquid or liposomal forms for better absorption.

4. Sun Exposure

• Optimizing Sunlight: Aim for 15-30 minutes of midday sun several times weekly.
• Geographical Considerations: Northern latitudes may require alternative approaches.

5. Medical Conditions and Lab Monitoring

• Hashimoto's and NAFLD: Can complicate vitamin D metabolism.
• Regular Testing: Monitor vitamin D and related nutrient levels.

6. Lifestyle and Diet Adjustments

• Anti-inflammatory Diet: Supportive for NAFLD and overall health.
• Liver Health: Consider liver-supporting supplements.

Conclusion

Work closely with your healthcare provider to address underlying causes. A combination of higher vitamin D doses, different formulations, and supportive nutrients may be needed to improve your levels.

Coral Calcium Supreme - Premium Mineral Supplement

Coral Calcium Supreme contains 72 trace minerals in perfect balance! Calcium is one of the most important and essential minerals that the human body requires for overall health. It is crucial not only for strong teeth and bones, but also for muscle contraction (including the heart), vascular function, and the nervous system.

Hundreds of enzyme responses and protein interactions rely on calcium as a co-factor, and cell communication also requires calcium. While calcium is known for strengthening bones, its most important function is supporting the proper functioning of the nervous system.

Calcium is the most tightly regulated element in our bodies, managed by the parathyroid glands. No other element has its own regulatory system. If calcium levels become elevated, personality changes and nervous system symptoms like depression may occur. Parathyroid conditions are not just about osteoporosis or kidney stones; they are primarily about feeling "normal" and enjoying life.

Why you need coral minerals: Many health conditions are caused by mineral deficiencies. Minerals are the foundation of health, and due to soil depletion, our food and bodies are often deficient in them. Coral naturally contains every mineral needed by the body, and these minerals are easily absorbed.

How do coral minerals work? Minerals are the foundation for health. They play critical roles in everything from bone strength to enzymatic activities within and outside of our cells. Coral minerals raise the pH of body fluids and tissues back to their natural healthy levels. A high pH (alkaline) is important, as most diseases thrive in a low pH (acidic) environment.

All coral used in supplements is sourced from above the sea level on the island of Okinawa. Thousands of years ago, this coral formed a thriving reef, which was later pushed above sea level, free from modern ocean pollution.
