Essential of vitamin D for bone health


Essential of vitamin D for bone health -- Posted by Rachel on 08-03-04 21:34


As many of you know, vitamin D is essential for good health. For the
record,
Vitamin D is not a true vitamin in that it doesn't function as a
coenzyme. Insteadit is a hormone; one that helps regulate the uptake
and utilization of calcium and phosphorus in the body. In this
capacity, vitamin D is absolutely essential for optimizing bone
health, lifelong. From infancy through the senior years, vitamin D
helps us absorb maximum amounts of calcium from our diet. It further
assists in regulating the proper balance between bone production and
bone remodeling;a balance that is essential for maintaining a strong,
mineral-rich skeleton. This,in turn, is critical for reducing the risk
of osteoporosis, a crippling chronic degenerative disease that results
in debilitating bone fractures, typically of the hip, wrist and spine.
More than 14 million Americans and 1-2 million Canadians have been
clinically diagnosed with low bone mineral density and osteoporosis.

These disorders are most prevalent among post-menopausal women, but
they
also affect men.

They have also found that a person can have too much vit-D and you have been
reported for advertising.
