Would lack of Vitamin D in the elderly cause tiredness?

Yes, vitamin D deficiency could certainly give rise to tiredness. Our bodies naturally create vitamin D from direct sunlight on the skin; if you are not being exposed to enough sunlight you can become deficient in this vital vitamin.

It might be worth consulting your doctor who can test your vitamin D levels. If they are low your doctor might recommend trying a vitamin D supplement to see if this helps.

However, please note, if the symptoms persist or get any worse it could also be related to something else so again it is worth having this checked by your doctor.

Our Balance Mineral Drink contains vitamin D, as well as other energy-boosting minerals, including magnesium and zinc, which we know are essential for supporting energy processes in our body.
