Vitamin D is otherwise known as the sunshine vitamin and this is so due to the fact that the body makes it from cholesterol when we exposed to the sun.

But then, it can also be gotten from the food we consume daily and when it is too low in the body you may notice some symptoms ranging from serious to minor.

In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some symptoms of lack of vitamin D in the body.

1. Bone pain and back pain –

If your body is lacking vitamin D, you will find yourself battling with bone pain and unexplained back pain and issues. Unusual bone pain and soreness could mean you are lacking or running short of vitamin D. The bones get stronger and better when there is adequate vitamin D in the blood.

2. Constant feeling of tiredness

This is another symptom or indication of vitamin D deficiency in the body. If you start feeling unusually tired and weak, then it could be an indication that you lack vitamin D and the earlier you get checked or start eating vitamin D rich foods the better for you.

3. Falling sick regularly

Vitamin D also strengthens the immune system which in turns helps fight infections and minor pathogens from getting into the body but when your body doesn’t have enough vitamin D, your immune system wouldn’t be strengthened thus causing you to easily fall ill even when there is a very minor flu or condition.
