Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is known to aid the body's absorption and retention of calcium and phosphorus, both critical for bone support. Studies have also shown this powerhouse vitamin to reduce cancer cell growth, protect against infections, and reduce overall inflammation. 

Vitamin D is normally obtained from particular foods, such as egg yolks and sun-exposed mushrooms, or it's produced by our skin from the ultraviolet energy of the sun. However, the vitamin is not abundant in food, and as more individuals avoid direct sun exposure for beautifying and safety reasons deficiencies in vitamin D has become more prevalent than ever before. 

In an ideal scenario you will expose yourself to a safe and healthy amount of sunshine everyday to naturally produce vitamin D which supports so many key functions of our body. However, when this option is not available for any reason, such as darker winter months or if you want to prioritise the look of younger skin from minimised sun exposure, you will benefit from supplementing with vitamin D in order to avoid deficiencies.
