The Benefits of Vitamin D:
- Supports calcium absorption from intestines to promote bone density and integrity.
- Natural support for healthy cell growth and health of the immune system, colon, breast, and prostate.
- High potency for older adults and residents of northern regions, whose bodies absorb and synthesize less Vitamin D.
The Discussions on Vitamin D.
Dr. Winchester & Dr. Haggerty encourage incorporating Vitamin D into your daily vitamin intake due to the significant role it plays in bone health. Vitamin D directly influences the metabolism of bone and aids in the absorption of calcium.
Vitamin D is best known for helping promote bone mass by increasing calcium absorption from the intestines and maintain calcium levels in the blood. Subjects who do not get adequate Vitamin D every day may not adequately absorb calcium from the foods in their diet, leading the body to take calcium from bones.
Food sources of Vitamin D are limited and include egg yolks, liver, and fatty fish; milk is fortified with Vitamin D. The body can produce Vitamin D when the skin is exposed to sunlight. Residents of northern regions, older adults, and people who use sunscreen may produce less Vitamin D and may consider supplementing with high-potency supplements to ensure adequate D status
