Author: Chandy Rodgers
Vitamin D is often referred to as the ‘sunshine vitamin’ because your body produces it in response to sunlight. But its benefits go far beyond its cheery nickname. As we head into winter it is a good time to understand the importance of Vitamin D. Over the next few blog posts you will learn:
What is Vitamin D?
Vitamin D is a nutrient that acts like a hormone in your body, playing a critical role in maintaining overall health. Its most famous job is helping your body absorb calcium and phosphorus, two minerals that are vital for building strong bones and teeth. Without enough Vitamin D, bones can weaken, leading to conditions like rickets in children or osteomalacia and osteoporosis in adults.
Beyond bone health, Vitamin D supports your immune system, helping your body fend off illnesses and infections. It is also linked to mental health, with low levels often associated with mood changes and disorders like seasonal affective disorder (SAD), common in the darker months of the year.
