Correcting San Jose vitamin D deficiency increases the immune system to ward off disease and even depression.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Take Vitamin D

A healthy body relies on a healthy, well-functioning immune system. Vitamin D plays a beneficial role in supporting a health immune system and helps fight challenges to it. Air pollution is a challenge as it can activate undue immune responses: infection, cancer, auto-immune conditions. Inhaled air pollution usually lands on respiratory mucosa and influences the respiratory system. (The news is filled with talk about the respiratory system today.) Vitamin D supplementation is one strategy study proposes may boost the immune system to fight such invasion. (3) Vitamin D is reportedly beneficial to improve and keep clinical depression at bay due to its homeostatic, immunomodulatory and neuroprotective roles. (4) Everyone from government, research and industry around the world recognize that vitamin D deficiency is an extensive problem. All are seeking for ways to deal with it and respond to the questions “How much vitamin D should I take daily?” and “How best do we ensure everyone gets that?” (5) Let us discuss this at your next chiropractic visit and set a plan to boost your vitamin D level and permit your body to ward off health-compromising issues.
