Vitamin D, Kerbala, deficiency D3Abstract
Background: Vitamin D3 deficiency is highly prevalent in the population throughout the world and it's underestimated due to lack of screening tests. It's also associated with numerous diseases, including those characterized by inflammatory processes.
Aim of study: The study aims to examine the prevalence of vitamin D3 deficiency among young healthy females in Kerbala province. If we prove the high prevalence of vit D deficiency, we would consider writing a policy to the governmental bodies to start screening for Vitamin D3 deficiency and increase public awareness about this public health problem.
