VITAMIN D
IMPORTANCE: A deficiency plays a key role in the development of type 1
diabetes. Vitamin D is needed for islet cells to produce insulin, the
hormone that allows cells to take up blood sugar. Without enough Vitamin
D, islet cells don't produce insulin. Helps regulate white blood cells that
make up the immune system; Vitamin D with calcium has shown to reduce
osteoporosis and hip fractures; improves the absorption and utilization of
calcium and phosphorus; hardens and repairs bones; prevents rickets,
treats hypocalcaemia, and promotes normal growth in children; supports
the healthy function of the thyroid gland; may help prevent colon cancer.
DEFICIENCY SYMPTOMS: May lead to rickets, tooth decay, softening of
bones, improper healing of fractures, lack of vigor, muscular weakness,
inadequate absorption of calcium, retention of phosphorous in the kidneys.
