Vitamin D

---

Your body produces vitamin D naturally when it’s directly exposed to sunlight. You can also get vitamin D from certain foods and supplements to ensure adequate levels of the vitamin in your blood.

Vitamin D has several important functions. Perhaps the most vital are regulating the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and facilitating normal immune system function.

Vitamin D is the catalyst for healthy growth of bones and teeth as well as providing improved resistance to certain diseases. Here in the Uk we can all agree that the sun is no reliable source which has in turn led to the majority of our population being deficient in this vital vitamin. This vitamin works wonders for your immune system, reducing risks of a countless amount of illnesses such as MS, heart disease and the adverse risks of more common illnesses such as COVID-19. 

There has been huge amounts of research carried out on vitamin D due to its impressive benefits; to name a few: 

- Helps to regulate mood, reducing depression 

- Supports weight loss

- Reduced aches and pains
