Vitamin D Deficiency
Posted , 7 users are following.
Heavy alcohol consumption can cause lack of Vitamin D.
I know we talk about vitamins to take during recovery...folic acid...Vitamin B...Vitamin C...B12...Thiamine....but I haven't seen vitamin D.
My Vit D reading was very low...18ng/mL...the low range shouldn't be lower than 30ng/mL. My Dr. has called in a supplement.
A lack of this vitamin can cause various problems...one of them Gastrointestinal..which I have been struggling with since November of last year.
Vitamin D (lack) can also cause soreness in our bodies...bones and joints...which I also have. Indicated for health of heart and bones.
I posted this for anyone recovering...or not...to consider a Vitamin D discussion with your Dr. Because taking too much can be harmful and not having enough can also be harmful...to the point of causing cancer (if you don't have enough).

and being healthy when we aren't drinking but don't care about cleaning our teeth, washing, having a bath etc when drinking. I get that with my hair getting tangled with knots to the extent I have to cut knots out of it. Don't change bedding, clothes, I could go on. When sober won't leave the house without a bit of make up on and nice hair!! The house alway looks like a bomb has hit it too.
Oh my, Jekyl and Hyde springs to my mind xx

It all of a sudden happened with me....these last 2 years...any time there was alcohol involved....there was nothing else.
But, I haven't worked and that is also a big factor. Since I don't have to see anyone all day...what was the point? But that was my sick way of thinking I guess.

I have a happy, sexual, fun loving marriage and I know if he felt neglected, he'd tell me. So in my head, all is well but I know I feel guilty each night that I drink a bottle of wine which proves I'm aware I'm drinking too much xx
