Vitamin D is normally obtained from the diet or produced by the skin from the ultaviolet energy of the sun. However, it is not abundant in food. As more people avoid sun exposure which limits VitaminD3 production in the body, supplementation becomes even more necessary to ensure that your body receives an adequate supply. Vitamin D stimulates calcium absorption and regulates calcium concentration in the blood, promoting healthy bones, teeth and skin. Dietary deficiencies and lack of sun exposure can lead to rickets, ostcomalacia or osteoporosis. Research suggests higher doses of vitamin D may also provide protection against certain cancers.
