Vitamin D The "Sunshine Vitamin" |
|
|
 Vitamin
D has always been known to help increase blood calcium levels and
therefore help with our bones. However, these days we are finding out
that it does so much more. Vitamin D acts more like a prehormone
& is highly involved in the immune system.Living in Arizona
you would think we get plenty of that sunshine vitamin. However,
Vitamin D deficiency is a common occurrence. This is mainly because of
decreased sun exposure, sunscreen use & deficiency in our diets.
Vitamin
D deficiency is associated with cancer, heart disease, depression,
hypertension, autoimmune disease, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and so
much more.
So, the question is ...What does your Vitamin D level look like and could it be effecting your health?
