Hello! Half a year I treated human roundworm, I cured I did tests and I came out with a very large deficiency of Vitamin D . Can human gllista be the reason for a very low level of Vitamin D? I will add that other results are ok. Is it possible that the roundworm I treated for half a year (Zentel, Vermox) lowered my vitamin D levels? Or the drugs I took ie Zentel and Vermox Thank you in advance for your answer

Chronic ascariasis can result in deficiencies of certain nutrients, as roundworms – like other intestinal parasites – consume some of the nutrients to their advantage. When it comes to vitamins, roundworms impoverish the host primarily in vitamins A and C. I have not found information indicating that roundworm may be the sole and decisive cause of a very strong deficiency of vitamin D. Hypovitaminosis D is common in the population, even among generally healthy people. This is due to the fact that with the diet we can secure only about 20% of the demand, and 80% of the vitamin comes from impaired skin synthesis - in our latitude - for most of the year: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/witamina-d-czyli-nie-unikaj-slonca https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/witamina-d3 In my opinion, in the current situation, there is no possibility and probably also the need to determine the cause of the deficiency - the results should be shown to the doctor and appropriate supplementation should be undertaken.
Why did you treat roundworm? Was she sick ?
Hello, ascariasis can cause a deficiency of vitamin D. I was diagnosed with ascariasis and I was diagnosed with thyroid hormone problems. When I treated my thyroid, I didn't know anything about glista. Supplementation with vitamin D made the thyroid problem disappear. But the question arose, where in a healthy person who eats a lot of fish, suddenly the problem with vitamin C deficiency. d. I will also add that I do not avoid the sun and I love to bask in. The study of the topic led me to diagnose the presence of roundworms.
