Many common diseases have been associated with vitamin D deficiency, many of which are supported by quality studies. Unlike other vitamins, vitamin D is actually a building block involved in repair and maintenance of the body. In a recent publication that reviewed controlled trials, vitamin D was shown to reduce total mortality1. Many believe that the greatest role vitamin D can play is to decrease the risk of chronic illnesses, including cardiovascular disease, common cancers, infectious diseases, and autoimmune diseases. There are so many good reasons and health benefits! There are 4 main sources of vitamin D: •Sunlight, but the Canadian Dermatology Association and Health Canada advise against direct exposure of sunlight, especially for infants; •Artificial UVB light (tanning beds), but sunburns are associated with skin cancer (malignant melanoma) and regular UV light exposure increases the risk of non-melanoma skin cancers and ages the skin; •Some foods (natural and fortified), but in nature, there are very few dietary sources of Vitamin D (mainly some types of fish, mushrooms, egg yolks and dairy products); •Supplements.
