Dr. Wang Lei
Vitamin D supplementation in adults can promote intestinal absorption of calcium, improve bone quality, and aid in the treatment of osteoporosis. It also helps maintain the balance of calcium and phosphate in plasma. Therefore, it is primarily used to prevent rickets, osteomalacia, hypothyroidism, and as an adjunctive treatment for fractures in the elderly caused by vitamin D deficiency.
