UVitamin D usiza umzimba wakho ukuba umunbe i-calcium futhi ulondoloze amathambo aqinile kuyo yonke impilo yakho. Umzimba wakho ukhiqiza uvithamini d lapho imisebe yelanga ye-UV ixhumana nesikhumba sakho. Eminye imithombo emihle yamavithamini ifaka nezinhlanzi, amaqanda, nemikhiqizo yobisi evikelwe. Iyatholakala futhi njengesengezo sokudla.

UVitamin D kufanele adlule ezinqubweni eziningana emzimbeni wakho ngaphambi kokuba umzimba wakho ungayisebenzisa. Ukuguqulwa kokuqala kwenzeka esibindini. Lapha, umzimba wakho uguqula uvithamini d kumakhemikhali owaziwa ngokuthi amakhemikhali angama-25-hydroxyvitaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminamini.

Ukuhlolwa kwe-vithamini D ukuhlola okuyindlela engcono kakhulu yokuqapha amazinga we-Vitamin D. Inani le-25-hydroxyvitaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminaminamina egazini lakho liyinkomba enhle yokuthi uvithamini d yakho kangakanani. Ukuhlolwa kunganquma ukuthi ngabe amazinga akho we-Vitamin D aphezulu kakhulu noma aphansi kakhulu.

Isivivinyo saziwa nangokuthi uvivinyo lwe-25-Oh Vitamin D kanye ne-calcidiol 25-hydroxycholecalciforol test. Kungaba yinkomba ebalulekile yeI-Osteoporosis(ubuthakathaka bethambo) futhiizinsika(ukungalungiswa kwamathambo).

Udokotela wakho angacela ukuhlolwa kwamavithamini D angu-25 ngenxa yezizathu eziningana ezahlukahlukene. Kungabasiza ukuthi babone ukuthi ngabe ubukhulu be-vithamini bukhulu noma obuncane kakhulu bubangela ubuthakathaka bethambo noma okunye ukungahambi kahle. Ingabheka futhi abantu abasengozini yokuba aVitamin D esilwaneni.

Labo abasengozini enkulu yokuthi babe namazinga aphansi amavithamini D bahlanganisa:

• abantu abangavezi okuningi elangeni
• Abantu abadala
• abantu abanokukhuluphala
• izingane ezinceliswe ibele kuphela (ifomula livame ukuqiniswa ngevithamini D)
• Abantu abaye bahlinzwa i-gastric bypass ukuhlinzwa
• Abantu abanesifo esithinta amathumbu futhi benza kube nzima ngomzimba ukumunca izakhi zomzimba, njengeIsifo sikaCrohn

Udokotela wakho angafuna nawe wenze isivivinyo se-vithamini d se-50 hydroxy d uma sekuvele ngakuthola ngokuntuleka kwevithamini d futhi ufuna ukubona ukuthi ngabe ukwelashwa kusebenza yini.
