Despite being a country with abundant sunshine, Vitamin D deficiency is fairly common in India. According to the ASSOCHAM latest survey conducted in Bangalore, around 88% of the population has a Vitamin D level which is less than normal. However, the bigger concern is that the population at large is not even aware of Vitamin D deficiency and its consequences.While inactive lifestyles are widely regarded as the main reason for increasing Vitamin D deficiency, doctors are pointing out that an increasing number of kids are falling prey to joint-related ailments because of these modern, sedentary ways. Lifestyle factors such as healthy diet, physical activity and spending time outdoors are some of the ways to ensure your Vitamin D levels are kept in check.
