Vitamin D helps make bones stronger by aiding the body in absorbing calcium to prevent brittle bones, which can lead to osteoporosis.

A Responsive Immune System
Vitamin D may help with immunity by warding off the germs that cause colds, flu, and other illnesses. Also, it may be effective in alleviating the symptoms of inflammation caused by autoimmune diseases.
