Key facts
Vitamin D is essential for bone health, as it helps the body absorb calcium, which strengthens bones and teeth. Severe deficiency can lead to bone related conditions, such as rickets in children and osteoporosis in adults. This vitamin also supports immune function, helping the body fight infections and reduce inflammation.
Sunlight is the primary source of vitamin D, as the skin produces it when exposed to UV rays. Dietary sources include fatty fish, egg yolks, fortified milk, and supplements. People at higher of deficiency include those with limited sun exposure, darker skin, older adults, and individuals with certain medical conditions that affect nutrient absorption.
