Abstract in brief

  • Vitamin D is crucial for more than just bone health; it also helps reduce the risk of chronic diseases like autoimmune disorders, certain cancers, and cardiovascular problems.
  • The serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) is the main indicator used to assess vitamin D status, with levels below 20 ng/mL indicating deficiency and 20-29 ng/mL indicating insufficiency; optimal levels are around 30 ng/mL.
  • Since vitamin D is biologically inert until processed in the liver and kidney, measuring 25OHD is the best way to evaluate vitamin D status, as higher levels of 125OH2D do not reflect deficiency and may actually be elevated due to secondary hyperparathyroidism.]
