Vitamin D is well known for helping us get calcium into our bones, but it's function is so much more. There are clinical applications for vitamin D in chronic conditions such as autoimmune diseases and inflammation, cardiovascular disease risk, hypertension, multiple sclerosis, diabetes and cancer risk. Safe sun exposure is our main source, along with dietary sources of egg yolks and oily fish. This is one vitamin I supplement a lot over the colder months. If you're unsure if your vitamin D is adequate please seek out help.
