It has a number of benefits for your overall health and wellbeing. Vitamin D helps to support levels of both Calcium and Phosphorus in the body. Vitamin D supports the maintenance of normal bones and muscle function, as well as the normal functioning of the immune system. Most of the Vitamin D our bodies get comes through the direct exposure of our skin to sunlight. Although the body does not produce Vitamin D on its own, it can produce it with the help of direct exposure to sunlight. The UVB rays in the sun hit receptors in the skin cells and this triggers a chemical reaction, which produces Vitamin D. It can be difficult to get all the Vitamin D that your body needs through sunlight, especially during the winter months or if you spend a lot of time inside. The NHS therefore recommends that everyone should take a Vitamin D supplement, during the winter months, in the UK.
