Do You Know Your Vitamin D Status? 80% of Northern California Are Deficient and Insufficient.

Hey there,

I hope you had a great week and had the opportunity to enjoy the warm weather if you live in the Bay Area.

I got my dose of Vitamin D the last few days and it feels great. My mood changes for the better with as little as 15 minutes in the sun. I can feel the energy being sucked out of me as I sit in front of this computer. The sun and being in nature then recharges me so I can do more 🙂

Did you know that 80% of Northern California subjects tested during winter months have serum vitamin D deficiency (less than 20 ng/ml) or insufficiency (20-32 ng/ml). Source: SunligtD.org

I learned about this statistic many years ago and it still amazes me that sunny California produces deficient or insufficient residents. Crazy stuff!

If you haven’t been Vitamin D tested recently I highly recommend you talk with your Doctor about getting this done ASAP. If you have a high insurance deductible like I do, you can bypass the Doctor and order your own test for only $59: Direct Labs. This may be the only way you are able to get frequent tests done to make sure you are in balance. I do suggest you work with a qualified health care practitioner on your Vitamin D status because too little or too much Vitamin D can create problems as discussed here: SunligtD.org
