Vitamin D, as one of the essential elements in people's bodies, shows its great importance. And the lack of it can cause a person's body to become disordered, and even bring some diseases to oneself, just like a machine lacking a certain component that leads to poor operation. So how to determine if a child lacks vitamin D? Let's learn about it together.
According to big data from China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention, at least 80% of children in China are deficient in vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a decrease in the body's blood calcium function, often resulting in symptoms such as waking up in sleep or frequent hand and foot cramps.
In severe cases, bone hypoplasia and rickets will occur, and the incidence rate of diabetes, obesity and other diseases will increase. Therefore, early detection of vitamin D deficiency in children and appropriate supplementation based on their condition can prevent the occurrence of the above-mentioned diseases or physiological problems.
Therefore, if parents find that their children have the above phenomena, it is enough to prove that their children's bodies have started to warn. Therefore, parents should supplement their children with nutrition, especially vitamin D, but also in an appropriate amount. Excess will increase the incidence rate of another disease.
