Özet
Objective: This study was conducted to find the lifestyles of individuals with vitamin D deficiency. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 250 individuals with vitamin D deficiency who referred to Erzurum Region Training and Research Hospital Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases Outpatient Clinic between April 2015 and October 2015. Questionnaires were used to collect the data. Results: Average vitamin D levels of the individuals were found as 11.82±5.73. It was found that 80.8% of the individuals did not use the vitamin D supplement, while vitamin D levels of those who did not use the supplement and those who used vitamin D drops were found to have significantly low vitamin D levels (p=0.000). Vitamin D levels of the individuals who had a diagnosis period of less than 6 months, those who did not use sun cream, those who were dark and wheat-skinned, those who did not eat fish and those who did not eat cheese were found to be significantly low (p<0.05). Vitamin D levels of the individuals who did not sunbathe (21.2%), those who sunbathe at hours other than 11 and 15 (97.6%), those who sunbathe with covered clothes (76.4%) and those who BMI under 30 (58.4%), was found to be low, while no statistically significant difference was found between them (p>0.05). Conclusion: Individuals who did not take vitamin D supplement, those who used vitamin D drops, those who had a diagnosis period of less than 6 months, those who did not use sun cream, those who did not eat fish and cheese and those who were dark and wheat-skinned had significantly low vitamin D levels.
