Which of the following vitamin deficiencies would you be concerned about for a woman who shows signs of osteoporosis?

Vitamin B12
Vitamin B6
Vitamin D
Vitamin C

Explanation

Answer - C - Vitamin D is an essential part of the production and strengthening of bone. A woman who shows signs of osteoporosis would be recommended to take calcium supplements along with Vitamin D to ensure that the calcium she was taking would be utilized in the bone strengthening process, as calcium cannot be used for bone development without Vitamin D.
