Vitamina D é uma vitamina lipossolúvel contida naturalmente em poucos tipos de alimentos, adicionado ao leite, disponível como suplemento, e produzido endogenamente com exposição à luz solar. Deficiência de vitamina D pode ser causada por ingesta inadequada devido a fatores dietéticos ( dietas especiais como veganismo, intolerância a lactose ou alergias) e/ou por exposição limitada à luz solar devido a localização geográfica, prevenção ao sol e trabalho em turnos. Deficiência grave resulta em transtorno da modelação óssea chamado raquitismo em crianças ( placas de crescimento abertas) e osteomalacia em adultos ( placas de crescimento fechadas). | |||
