In some cases, even when it was possible to identify a cause, effective treatments were often elusive. As a doctor, whose core mission is to relieve pain, this was incredibly disheartening. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn November 2009, Dr Thanthulage first came across research highlighting widespread vitamin deficiencies in the population. when he tested one of his patients for vitamin D levels the result was shockingly low. That moment marked the beginning of a new path in his professional journey, one focused on understanding the role of vitamin D in pain and overall health. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough years of clinical practice and ongoing learning, Dr Thanthulage came to understand that vitamin D is just one piece of the puzzle. It does not act alone. For vitamin D to function optimally, the body needs a range of other micronutrients we often neglect, lose through lifestyle choices, or fail to obtain through diet alone. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis booklet is a synthesis of this learning which comes from both personal experience and patient care.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57507681403253,"sku":"9781806347643","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/vitamin-d-effect-on-chronic-pain","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
