My brother had a complete body health checkup today, he was totally normal except his vitamin D count is abnormally low, the thing I wanted to know is why did this happen and what he should do in order to recover from it. Please suggest common food items which can supplement for the same. Thankyou,

Hi This normally happens when a person is usually working in a closed atmosphere for a long time (spending long hrs in AC). Lack of sunlight is the reason. Let him walk in early morning sunlight before 8 am. Also vitamin D sachets r available. Kindly consult your physician and start taking it. Thank you.
