Yes, in Ayurveda, **Vitamin D deficiency** is understood not by the modern vitamin terminology, but by the **concept of "Asthi Dhatu Kshaya" (bone tissue depletion)**, **poor Agni (digestive fire)**, and **reduced absorption of nutrients** due to weakened **Rasa and Majja dhatus** (nutrient plasma and marrow).
While **sunlight is the primary and most effective source of Vitamin D**, there are **Ayurvedic herbs, foods, and methods** that can **support your body's ability to absorb and utilize vitamin D** more effectively â especially when combined with even a little bit of sunlight (e.g., 15 minutes of early morning exposure).

Yes, Ayurveda focuses on improving digestion (Agni) and liver function, which are essential for proper absorption and metabolism of Vitamin D. While sunlight is the primary natural source, Ayurveda can support Vitamin D levels through:
Ayurvedic Supportive Remedies:
Haritaki, Amalaki (Triphala) â improve gut health and metabolism
Ashwagandha â supports endocrine balance and calcium metabolism
Giloy (Guduchi) â strengthens immunity and liver function
Cow ghee (in moderation) â helps in fat-soluble vitamin absorption
Natural Veg Sources (though low in D3):
Fortified plant milks or cereals (not Ayurvedic, but helpful)
Mushrooms exposed to sunlight (contain D2)
However, in case of a significant deficiency, supplementation under guidance may still be necessary along with these Ayurvedic measures.
For a customized herbal and diet plan, feel free to consult me directly.
