Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be found in several natural foods and in the sun, and those who do not prefer vitamin D-rich foods and sunlight can turn to dietary supplements. UV rays are actually responsible for creating vitamin D because when they hit the skin, they actually trigger the synthesis of this vitamin in our body. That is why it is healthy to expose yourself to the sun, but never excessively because of the harmful effects of UV rays, the effect of which we have already written about, as well as how to protect yourself from them.
Good sources of vitamin D in food are sea fish, fish oil, mushrooms, egg yolks, butter as well as various types of cereals. This vitamin is very important for the health of bones and teeth, as well as for the good functioning of muscles and nervous tissue. It is also very important because of calcium and phosphorus. It promotes the resorption of these minerals from the intestines and enables their deposition in the bones.

Vitamin D is a very important vitamin in the body because it maintains calcium levels. It helps the body to absorb calcium from food, which promotes bone strengthening. Without enough vitamin D, bones can become thinner, brittle and soft, further leading to a higher risk of fractures and bone diseases such as osteoporosis and osteomalacia.
When we talk about immunity, vitamin D also plays a very important role, since its optimal intake/production greatly affects the strengthening of immunity and has a positive effect on the nervous system. Another benefit is the regulation of blood sugar, so it can be helpful for diabetics.
In addition to these 2 benefits, it is very important to mention 2 additional benefits of vitamin D and those are:
- It helps with the development of the lungs and cardiovascular system
- It plays a key role in the fight against obesity
