Importance of Vitamin D in Pregnancy
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to the Natural Pregnancy RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Vitamin D is important for everyone and with our modern, indoor lifestyle, most of us are deficient in this wonderful sunlight vitamin. A recent study has found that Vitamin D plays a crucial role in pregnancy as well, because prenatal deficiencies can lead to early childhood tooth decay. “Two hundred six pregnant women in their second trimester participated in the study. Only 21 women (10.5%) were found to have adequate vitamin D levels.” Swellpregnancyguide.com
Vitamin D deficiency in pregnancy has also been linked to preeclampsia, rickets and other musculoskeletal and health complications in children, lower bone density and smaller babies.
Beef up your Vitamin D levels with contaminant free cod liver oil, such as Carlsons, raw, organic dairy products, take a food based prenatal and get plenty of sunlight if you are able. Learn more at Sciencedaily.com, eurekalert.org and webmd.com.
