What happens if you take too much vitamin D

Vitamin D is an essential trace element for the human body. If it is lacking, it will induce some diseases, such as bone lesions, etc. For newborn babies, the content of vitamin D in the body is very low, so pregnant women should strengthen their nutrition, or supplement vitamin D for the baby later, but not in excess. So what will happen if vitamin D is excessive?

First, what happens if you take too much vitamin D? Excess vitamin D can cause bone diseases. The dosage of vitamin D supplement must be controlled and not taken too much. If vitamin D is supplemented excessively, it will affect the baby's intellectual development. When a baby is just born, its brain is in a process of exploration. At this time, vitamin D will hinder the development of the brain. Trace vitamin D can promote bone development, but if the vitamin D content is too rich, the human body cannot completely absorb the vitamin D, and the excess vitamin D will be stored in the body. Some people develop bone lesions, such as very obvious rickets and gigantism, because of excessive vitamin D supplementation.

Second, excess vitamin D will affect calcium absorption. In addition, vitamin D is an important ingredient that promotes calcium absorption. When the baby is just born, the calcium content is actually relatively low. If there is only more vitamin D, the absorption of calcium will be affected. Excess vitamin D will increase the burden on various organs and cause chronic diseases. If a baby is just born with chronic diseases, it will have a huge impact on the child's life. Some children will directly lose the ability to think, and their brain development will be slower than other people.

Although children need to be supplemented with more nutrients in the period when they are just born, they must not be supplemented with too many nutrients, otherwise they may overdose. Although vitamin D is very good for the human body, excessive vitamin D can also cause body diseases. Newborn babies have relatively poor body resistance. If you do not pay attention to these problems, the child's health will be ruined.
