As a vegan who avoids the sun at all times my son sounds like he really ought to be taking a supplement. Although it sounds as if it gets more important as you get older, correct? That’s very interesting.

I do take a vitamin D supplement to make up for this though and I feel that I am fairly healthy. I work at night and sleep during the day so I don’t get too much sunlight.

I also was surprised at the point: "help regulate the immune system and neuromuscular system (nervous system and muscles working together)" Keep up the good work.

As an above poster stated you can get bloodwork done if you ask your doctor for it. My sister who is outside a fair amount of time, does not get much sun in the winter and showed up deficient. It is best to get Vitamin D from natural sources. We all need a little sunshine. Some supplements will do well, but be careful they are not made from non natural sources.

It leads to softening and weakening of the bones. In children, if it is corrected while the child is young, skeletal deformities often improve or disappear with time.

Although inadequate calcium intake and calcium depletion is considered the largest contributor to the weakening of bones and increasing chances of fractures, it really is Vitamin D which determines your bone health. Vitamin D regulates the amount of calcium which remains in blood circulation and also the amount that is deposited inside your teeth and bones. It promotes the absorption of phosphorous and calcium in your body, strengthening your bones.

The results must have been extremly bad because the Dr. put me on a prescription of 50,000IU taken once aweek. After reading about Vitamin D above, I am a little alarmed about taking this prescription. Would love to have your input. I just recently had blood work done to check my vitamin D level.
