Are you taking vitamin D the wrong way? Top doctor shares tips to fix it

Vitamin D is a nutrient the body needs to maintain healthy bones, support immune function, and promote overall well-being. Also known as the ‘sunshine vitamin’, this nutrient can be naturally produced by the body when exposed to the sun. But when the exposure is limited or the body fails to produce enough vitamin D, many turn to supplements. However, that doesn’t provide adequate vitamin D to the body. Some common mistakes can interfere with its absorption and lead to a deficiency. Dr. Adnan Azad, a British medical doctor, pharmacist, and health educator, has explained about 5 common mistakes people make while taking vitamin D and how to fix them. “You take your vitamin D every day, but you’re still tired, your mood’s low, and your bones still ache. So what’s going wrong? Most people are taking vitamin D completely wrong. If you don’t fix these five mistakes, you’re wasting your supplement or worse, you’re actually causing harm,” he said.
