Prenatal Vitamin D Deficiency Linked to Increased Risk for Schizophrenia
Story at-a-glance
- Schizophrenia has a physiological basis, beginning with improperly distributed neural progenitor cells in the developing brain. As a result, few mature neurons appear in the cortex — an area associated with memory, attention and processing of language — in the schizophrenic brain
- There is a lifelong impact for children born of vitamin D deficient mothers, ranging from childhood allergies and more frequent colds and flu, to a greater risk for diabetes, cardiovascular disease and, as recently confirmed, schizophrenia
- Children who were vitamin D deficient at birth had a 44 percent increased risk of developing schizophrenia as adults; vitamin D status could account for 8 percent of the schizophrenia cases in Denmark
- Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy has also been shown to increase autism-related traits in 6-year-old children
- To optimize your and your child’s health, get your vitamin D level tested — ideally before you get pregnant and routinely during pregnancy and breastfeeding — and take whatever amount of vitamin D3 you need to reach and maintain a level of 60 to 80 ng/mL
