👩🎓👨🎓🧑🎓Despite the name, vitamin D is not technically a vitamin—it functions more like a hormone. It is fat-soluble and plays a key role in many processes in the body. Your body makes vitamin D when your skin is exposed to sunlight, specifically UVB rays, which trigger its production.
🌟Several factors can reduce your ability to make enough vitamin D from sunlight:
• Regular use of sunscreen
• Spending most of your time indoors
• Cloud cover or pollution that blocks UV rays
• Seasonal and geographical factors
If you’re not getting enough sun exposure, you can also obtain vitamin D from certain foods, such as:
• Fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, tuna)
• Liver and egg yolks
• Fortified foods like dairy products, cereals, and juices
If diet and sun exposure aren’t enough, supplementation may be considered. 💉What Are Vitamin D3 Shots?
A vitamin D3 injection delivers the nutrient directly into the muscle (intramuscular injection), usually in the arm. This allows vitamin D to be absorbed into the bloodstream quickly and effectively.
The process is simple:
1. The injection site is cleaned.
2. Vitamin D3 is injected into the muscle.
3. The area is covered with gauze or a small bandage.
Mild soreness can occur at the injection site, but you can resume normal activities immediately. ⚠️ Note: While vitamin D is essential, too much can be harmful. High doses may cause toxicity, leading to issues such as kidney damage or high calcium levels. It’s best to check vitamin D levels with a healthcare provider before starting injections or high-dose supplements. ❤️DM us with any questions or contact us via the info below:
