Sunshine In A Bottle

Excessive exposure to the sun without adequate protection can be very harmful. That being said, we still require Vitamin D. Vitamin D assists bone growth, modulation of cell growth, neuromuscular and immune function, and reduction of inflammation. Many gene encoding proteins that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis are modulated in part by vitamin D (National Health Insitute). This creates a dilemma. How do we get an adequate amount of vitamin D without overexposing ourselves to harmful UVB and UVA sun rays? One solution, vitamin D supplementation. A low dose of vitamin D can go a long way. We offer vitamin D capsules, as well as a liquid for those of us who have a difficult time with pills!
