Are You Getting Enough Vitamin D?

An estimated 70 percent of the population is deficient in vitamin D. Recent study of this essential micronutrient has demonstrated its central role in maintaining health. Insufficient levels of vitamin D have been linked to:

• Suppressed immunity - our innate systems of defense may not function efficiently without adequate vitamin D, allowing increased susceptibility to infectious agents.
• Increased risk of chronic disease - low levels of vitamin D have been associated with a higher than normal risk of heart disease and several kinds of cancer.
• Heightened inflammation - vitamin D is a key cofactor in regulating inflammation throughout the body.

I recommend prudent daily sun exposure to support the natural production of vitamin D in our skin, as well as speaking to your doctor or nutritionist about checking vitamin D levels and supplementing if necessary.
