🟢 Tuesday’s Tip: Why Vitamin D Matters More Than You Think! ☀️
Did you know low Vitamin D levels can wreck more than just your energy?
Research keeps showing that Vitamin D deficiency is linked to a long list of pain and recovery problems — especially in active adults and athletes.
Here’s what the science shows 👇
✅ Poor post-op outcomes
✅ Implicated in lumbar disc degeneration
✅ Increases risk of biceps tendinopathy
✅ Major risk factor for chronic pain
✅ Improves outcomes in BPPV (vertigo)
✅ Correlated with knee osteoarthritis
✅ Common in rotator cuff tears
✅ Noted in fibromyalgia patients
✅ Lower levels seen in TMD patients
✅ Helps lessen diabetic neuropathy symptoms
✅ May contribute to lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
✅ Predicts how well stress fractures heal
✅ Linked to higher rates of migraines
Bottom line: Vitamin D impacts bones, tendons, nerves, balance, recovery, and pain sensitivity.
Most of us don’t get enough — even in sunny Florida.
If you’re struggling with pain that keeps coming back, slow injury recovery, or fatigue, let’s check your Vitamin D status and tune up your plan.
