Vitamin D and It’s Role in Hormone Health
Vitamin D deficiency is SO common. There’s research showing that approximately 35% of adults in the United States have vitamin D deficiency. Why does this matter? Well, this vitamin (or pro-hormone) plays a role in so many functions in our body. As most of us know, it’s critical for building bone, but it can also reduce inflammation, reduce occurrence of illness and may even reduce cancer cell growth. And although it’s such a simple deficiency to test for, most doctors aren’t doing adequate testing to ensure their patients aren’t deficient.
Let’s Talk Supplements
I think supplements are a great addition to a healthy diet to ensure you’re intaking all the right vitamins and minerals. What you need completely depends on what your goals and concerns are. Supplements are very individualized so it’s important to talk with your doctor about which ones are suitable for you.
