Baton Rouge CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:

Consider Vitamin D for Headache and Neck Pain

Vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide issue estimated to affect 30% to 50% of the population. (4) Researchers report that vitamin D deficiency may well cause or exacerbate neck pain, back pain, and muscle spasm. They state that fixing vitamin D deficiency is important in treating these conditions since it is not too costly and delivers big results in terms of quality of care and cost. (5) Another review of studies done about vitamin D and headache revealed that there is a link between vitamin D levels and headaches (the strongest link was between vitamin D levels and migraine). Researchers suggest that headache sufferers, especially those with migraines, may lessen the incidence of headache by increasing vitamin D. (6) Simple! Test your vitamin D level, and up it as necessary!
