Did you know that there is a group of experts called the Vitamin D Council? It’s a non profit organization that serves as a center for evidence-based vitamin D research and works to educate the public on vitamin D. On the council’s webpage you can find information about the importance of Vitamin D for the body and how it is not only important for bonegrowth, but also how vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor for many diseases, including heart disease and cancer.
