Why is vitamin D so important?

One of the most important things we can do these days is keep up our vitamin D status (or levels in our blood). Coming out of winter and with “shelter-in-place” and “stay-at-home” orders we should redouble our efforts to obtain vitamin D in our diet. Why? Because studies show that optimal levels of this vitamin appear to protect and improve the time course of difficult-to-treat vital respiratory tract infections such as influenza.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be manufactured in our skin upon exposure to sunlight. Vitamin D plays an important immune-regulatory role in the immune system. Large population studies show that low blood levels of vitamin D are linked to higher levels of both viral and bacterial infections. Studies also show that higher vitamin D status is associated with better outcome and time course of the infection.
