I have tested my Vitamin D level at 120 and Vitamin B12 at 485. Could you please tell me what the healthy ranges are for these vitamins, and how I can maintain or improve my levels?

Your Vitamin D (120 nmol/L) is in the upper normal range, no concern. Your Vitamin B12 (485 pg/mL) is also in the healthy mid range. Ideal Vitamin D is 75 to 125 nmol/L, and B12 is 300 to 900 pg/mL. Continue moderate sun exposure, B12-rich foods (eggs, dairy), and supplements only if advised.

Hi Doctor, my father is 58 years old. His lab report shows severe vitamin D deficiency, with a reading of 9 ng per ml. He is not able to sleep, feels depressed, has negative thoughts, and feels very low. Please confirm if his depression and low mood could be caused by vitamin D deficiency?

Three years ago, I underwent a biopsy, and the report showed Lichen Planus Pigmentosus. Since then, dark patches on my skin have been increasing gradually. I would like guidance on what I should do now.

Can I take vitamin D supplements to increase my vitamin D levels and testosterone? I have heard that increasing vitamin D levels can naturally increase testosterone. Can I take vitamin D supplements even if my vitamin D levels are normal? I am allergic to cod liver oil tablets.
