Are You Getting Enough Vitamin D
Thrive Magazine
|Spring 2019
In 2012, in partnership with the UK Health Department the government released guidelines on increasing vitamin D intake, with a specific focus on “at risk” groups.
The National Diet and Nutrition Survey has concluded that up to 1/5 of adults and 24% children are thought to be low in vitamin D. Soon enough, the National Institute of Clinical Evidence (NICE) were issued to improve health outcomes. Whilst advice had already been issued since 1991 on the benefits of Vitamin D on bone health, a greater awareness of the true extent of the issue has been revealed.
So, who would we define as “being at risk?” and in need of supplements?
These groups include:
People over the age of 65
Infants under the age of 4
People who have low or no exposure to sunlight
People with darker skin
Those on special diets, such as those avoiding nuts, fish or dairy
What exactly is Vitamin D?

Is Sugar Becoming The New Fat?
Fat has been demonised since the 1970s when the US made hasty recommendations that people should reduce their fat intake. Cardiovascular deaths were rising - something had to be done. Supermarkets and food companies jumped on board offering low and reduced fat products. A few decades later, we are now more overweight than ever, with type 2 diabetes on the rise and cardiovascular disease remaining the number one killer worldwide.
