Numerous people believe that their joint pain is a natural result of their aging.

But there are numerous cases in which people experience unbearable pain due to vitamin deficiency. This is the reason why you need to remain physically active, and not accept the pain, but struggle to relieve it.

Vitamin deficiency is a common issue nowadays, and it has a strong relation to joint pain.

This article will explain how to treat it and solve accompanying symptoms.

In most cases, aging causes joint pain, but it can also be a result of acidity level, diet, weight, job position. One study which was conducted recently showed that joint pain is often a result of vitamin D deficiency.

Additionally, if this issue is not solved on time, the pain is intensified and may cause bone issues and arthritis .

Therefore, it is important to know the symptoms of the lack of vitamin D in the body:

• Improper balance
• Poor sleep
• Burning and itching sensation in the feet
• Pain present in the feet and legs

You can also make a simple test and see if you are deficient of this vitamin. You need to press the chest bone and determine the levels of pressure that lead to pain. If you feel pain almost immediately when you press, you should definitely increase the intake of vitamin D.

First of all, in order to raise the levels of vitamin D, you should be exposed to the sun, at least 10-15 minutes a day. During the winter, or if you are living in a colder area where the sun is rare, being exposed to direct sunlight may be a problem.

Therefore, you should know that you can also consume it through foods like egg yolks, tuna, mushrooms, and mackerel.

You can also choose to supplement, and in this way, you do not need to change the regular diet. However, note that it is best to find a supplement which includes vitamin D3, not D2. D3 is naturally produced as a response of the body to the exposure to sunlight.

This kind of supplements may include up to 5.000 IU of this vitamin, as well as probiotics which are excellent for the digestive system.
