(VIDEO) Absorption of Vitamin D

This is a great video explaining more about Vitamin D. It lasts about four minutes, and in my opinion, is worth your time to watch!


Talk to your doctor about Vitamin D! This is very important heading into the winter season when getting Vitamin D from sunlight is next to impossible. Multiple studies this year have shown that COVID-19 infected patients who have low Vitamin D levels have poor and very poor outcomes.

Also noteworthy: Vitamin D absorption can interfere with the body's release of melatonin, which is a hormone that essentially helps you sleep at night. Therefore, it's best to take a Vitamin D supplement early in the day.

Here's a link to read a report from January 2020https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7019735...this report reviews micronutrients and the immune system, and how they need to work in harmony to improve your chances of fighting off infections (such as respiratory infections).


I noticed this video on the morning of October 26...also feel it is worth sharing! It's about six minutes long:


The more you know!
