Vitamin D: For more than just bone health
Understanding vitamin D’s communication via receptors throughout the body has opened up insight into new roles of this vitamin well beyond bone health that include immune health and athletic performance.
Keeping up your Vitamin D Levels
Dr. Arianna Carughi
SAB Member, Nutritional Scientist

Because studies show that optimal levels of this vitamin appear to protect and improve the time course of difficult-to-treat viral respiratory tract infections such as influenza.
