What You Can Do…

  • Get your vitamin d checked at least once per year! Your doctor will order the lab and you will give blood to test your level of d.

 

  • Those who live in the northern climates and others at risk for d deficiency, you may want to check your lab results in the summer as well as in the fall/winter.

                -Some find they need to increase the dose over time, possibly due to age, health factors and geography.
