Obesity is Tied to Vitamin D Deficiency

A post by Blanche Scharf http://www.yourhealthupdates.com I have been studying natural healing modalities for the last 25 years. In that time I have had the privilege of working with some of the greatest minds in Natural Healing including Naturopaths, Scientists, and Energy Healers. I have seen people miraculously heal from all kinds of dis-ease thru non-invasive methods. Personally, I have experienced all kinds of diets from Macrobiotics to Raw Foods. Now is a very important time to start sharing this health information with as many people as possible, so people can make well informed decisions about their health and not fall victim to a sickcare system based on profit, rather than one of supporting wholeness, compassion and love To see more posts by Blanche Scharf, click here

Obesity is tied to vitamin D deficiency which proves that being overfed and undernourished usually go hand and hand. Vitamin D is fat-soluble; it can be taken into fat cells and stored, thus making it potentially less available in our body’s metabolism. Production of vitamin D may also be reduced in obese individuals. For example, in one study, when normal and obese subjects were exposed to the same amount of radiation from natural sunlight, obese subjects only produced 55% the amount of vitamin D as normal weight subjects.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, a diet that is quite low in fat can lead to a vitamin D deficiency. There is a need for the right types of fat, which are the Omega 3 fatty acids. The idea that a diet that has the right fats, will make you heavy is not true. What causes weight gain is a diet high in refined food including sugar substitutes, corn syrup and a much too a high ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3. Obesity tied to vitamin D deficiency, is from basically eating a diet that does not nourish you.

An improvement in your nutritional status comes from an improved and diversified eating plan. The solution is to stock up and concentrate on better food choices. In that case you will drop pounds, and up your vitamin D. The understanding of this simple concept will undoubtedly take numerous expensive studies. In the mean time it would help considerably to take action and improve your diet, while adding physical activity.
