Vitamin D plays an important role in maintaining calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Vitamin D deficiency may lead to skeletal problems such as rickets, osteomalacia, progressive bone loss, and osteoporosis [1]. It may also lead to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and cardiovascular diseases [2]. Thus, it is of great significance to assess the nutritional status of vitamin D in the human body on time and achieve individualized vitamin D supplementation.

Applications
Vitamin D plays an important role in maintaining calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Vitamin D deficiency may lead to skeletal problems such as rickets, osteomalacia, progressive bone loss, and osteoporosis [1]. It may also lead to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and cardiovascular diseases [2]. Thus, it is of great significance to assess the nutritional status of vitamin D in the human body on time and achieve individualized vitamin D supplementation.
According to the American Endocrine Society's clinical practice guidelines [3], "vitamin D insuffciency" is defined as 25-OH Vitamin D <30 ng/mL.
| Vitamin D Status | 25-OH Vitamin D Concentration Range |
|---|---|
| Deficiency | < 20 ng/mL (<50 nmol/L) |
| Insufficiency | 20-30 ng/mL (50-75 nmol/L) |
| Sufficiency | > 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) |
| Toxicity | > 150 ng/mL (375 nmol/L) |
Currently, vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency are common problems worldwide. According to the study, over 60% of people are deficient in vitamin D worldwide [4]. Pregnant women, infants, children, the elderly, and obese people are especially at high risk of vitamin D deficiency.
