The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is increasing in various nations. According to the data published by PubMed in 2019, Serum 25 (OH)D is considered a marker for assessing vitamin D status. A range of below 75 nmol/L (or 30 ng/ml) of serum/plasma 25 (OH)D concentration is considered vitamin D deficiency. A cutoff of <25 or <30 nmol/L (or 10/12 ng/ml) increases the risk of nutritional rickets and osteomalacia, considered severe vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency majorly causes rickets in children and osteoporosis in adults. It is also linked to high blood pressure, common malignancies, and viral illnesses. Additionally, vitamin D is essential for the development of skeletal structure and dental enamel in children. It can cause numerous problems in newborns, such as irritability, development failure, and a higher risk of respiratory infections later in life.
Furthermore, according to the data published by PubMed in 2019, prevalence rates of severe vitamin D deficiency, defined as 25 (OH)D <30 nmol/L, were reported as 5.9% in the US, 7.4% in Canada, and 13% in Europe. The prevalence of 25 (OH)D levels <50 nmol/L has been reported as 24% in the US, 37% in Canada, and 40% in Europe. The increasing prevalence and awareness regarding the risks associated with vitamin D deficiency are expected to be a major factor driving the growth of the global vitamin D market for the forecast period.
