Vitamin D Support
A number of other nutrients can be helpful
such as zinc but there is one other stand
out nutrient that is often not mentioned
and that is vitamin D, our sunshine vitamin.
Natural food sources of vitamin D are few.
It is found in oily fish and eggs and fortified
foods such as breakfast cereals. But your
body does not expect to get much vitamin
D from food as it is made by the exposure
of your skin to sunlight, so at this time of
the year, your levels can be low. That is why
Public Health England recommend that all
adults and children over one should be
supplementing with vitamin D.
Vitamin D is important for your immune system. It is classed as
an immune modulator, it helps to balance your immune system.
It can bring it up the immune function if low and bring it down if
overactive. And you are either deficient in vitamin D or not. It is
such a black and white result when you take a test and it is easy
to correct a deficiency.
I cannot stress enough how important it for you to have good
levels of vitamin D. It is not only the immune benefits but research
has now shown that it has found to:
• be vital for bone health and osteoporosis
• play a major role in breast and bowel cancer prevention
• help with other conditions as diverse as type 2 diabetes,
heart disease, joint pains and arthritis, depression, dementia,
autoimmune diseases, fertility, autism, and allergies
• help with SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder).
