Feeling run down? Need a boost of energy?
It could be low Vitamin D levels leading to a slump in your energy, mood and focus.
While our caramel, bronze and cocoa skin loves to soak up the sun, skin color directly affects how much vitamin D your body makes. Melanin—the pigment that gives skin its color—acts as a natural sunscreen. Meaning people with darker skin need significantly longer sun exposure (often three to six times as long) than lighter-skinned individuals to produce the same amount of vitamin D.
As we move into the cooler months, there is less opportunity to get the Vitamin D our bodies need.
It can be difficult to take pills everyday to get boosted if you are severely low. A single intramuscular injection can increase your level by 11 getting you towards the goal of a level of 60.
Our intramuscular injection requires presentation of Vitamin D lab draw results within the past year. Don’t have one? No problem, we can use your insurance to get a level drawn. Book your appointment via our Link in Bio above or quenchwellness.com!
