Vitamin D Clinic
Vitamin D Shots in Ipswich
We don’t make enough vitamin D for our needs in the UK - in fact it is thought that around 20% of the UK population is deficient in Vitamin D!
Vitamin D helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body. These nutrients are needed to keep bones, teeth and muscles healthy. A lack of vitamin D can lead to bone deformities such as rickets in children, and bone pain caused by a condition called osteomalacia in adults
What are the benefits of vitamin D shots?
Vitamin D ingested orally can take weeks, even months, to have an impact on your health – and much of the dose is lost when it is converted in the gut.
However vitamin D shots have a much more immediate impact – some patients report feeling the effects right away. And a much higher percentage of the vitamins can be utilised by the body.
