In reply to Anyone else have chronically low vitamin D?, posted by Chris O on June 26, 2014, at 0:37:49
Hi, I also live in So Cal and I had the same problem for years. The whole vitamin D thing is media-hype. I had very low vitamin d for years and I tried supplementation but it didn't change. Once I started getting significantly more sun it changed and reached normal levels, but I didn't feel any different. Obviously people who are depressed are going to stay inside more often because they are depresssed and likely anxious and can't afford to do some of the outdoor activities that others do. The media tried to turn this into a two-way coorelation, but it really isn't. The depression came first not the low vitamin d.
