Uvavanyo lwe-vitamin D lwe-25-hydroxy yeyona ndlela ilungileyo yokubeka iliso kumanqanaba e-vitamin D.Ubungakanani be-25-hydroxyvitamin D egazini lakho luphawu oluhle lokuba ingakanani ivithamin D enomzimba wakho.Uvavanyo lunokuqinisekisa ukuba amanqanaba akho e-vitamin D aphezulu kakhulu okanye aphantsi kakhulu.
