Vitamin D3 is crucial for the Health of Mother & Child

Studies reveal that 89% of Pakistani women are Vitamin D₃ deficient with 45% being severely deficient having blood levels equal to or less than 10 ng/ml.

Optimum blood levels of Vitamin D₃ (50-80 ng/ml) reduce complications like pregnancy-induced hypertension (pre-eclampsia), gestational diabetes, bacterial vaginal infections, preterm birth, caesarean section and pelvic floor disorders in the pregnant mother.^2-4 It contributes to improving birth weight and preventing weak bones & lower respiratory tract infections in the newborn. It also appears that sufficient Vitamin D₃ in the child may decrease the risk of health problems later in life such as schizophrenia, brain tumors, asthma, mental retardation and autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes.²
