8 Reasons why you need Vitamin D3- Candida, Yeast Infection Blog 4U

Vitamin D3 is an important vitamin that is needed for 10 different reasons. We are supposed to get our Vitamin D3 through sun exposure, but so many of us work indoors now that it is hard to get the amount our body needs. Even when we are in the sun, we cover up with sun screen lotions for fear of developing skin cancer. As a result, many people are very deficient. It is virtually impossible to know what your vitamin d3 levels are without a blood test to confirm it. I found out this summer that I was very low in the amounts of vitamin D3 available in my blood stream. I spent last summer getting caught up and am looking very forward to warm weather so I can continue natural production of vitamin D3 in the summer sun.

Here are 8 reasons why we need vitamin D3:

1. Vitamin D3 plays an important role in bone building by allowing the uptake of calcium in the body.
2. It is important for healthy immune function; it may lower your risk of catching a cold and may also fend of the influenza viruses.
3. It has been linked to the prevention of diseases like multiple sclerosis, arthritis, and cancer.
4. Vitamin D3 may help prevent asthma and allergies especially in children.
5. It may help maintain mental agility in older people.
6. A sufficient amount of vitamin D3 may prevent joint pain and osteoporosis.
7. Vitamin D3 may play an important role in weight loss.
8. It may even act as a natural protector from low levels of radiation.

Vitamin D3 IS something that you can get too much of. You should be under the care of a medical practioner who routinely checks your blood levels if you want to take more than 5,000 IU per day of Vitamin D3.

Get started with a good vitamin D3 supplement during these winter months. http://stopyeast-store.com/vitamind3.aspx
