Vitamin D toxicity can lead to a loss of appetite, which may result in unintended weight loss. As the body struggles to maintain a balance of essential minerals, it might suppress the appetite to prevent further vitamin D intake. This can lead to a decrease in overall caloric intake and subsequent weight loss.
Loss of appetite and weight loss can have a negative impact on your overall health, as they may lead to malnutrition and weakened immunity. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it is crucial to discuss them with your healthcare provider. They can assess your vitamin D levels and recommend appropriate interventions, such as adjusting your vitamin D intake or recommending dietary changes to maintain a healthy weight. (4)
