Two NEW Benefits of Vitamin D
If I were to have a favorite nutrient, it would be vitamin D.
It boosts your health and reduces your risk of every major disease, and you also get it straight from the sun.
It doesn’t get easier, cheaper, or more beneficial than that!
But as much as we already know about D, new studies are constantly revealing even MORE about nature’s “wonder drug.”
Here are a few of the latest.
A recent study showed that vitamin D reduces inflammation.
C-reactive protein (CRP) is the most common blood test marker of inflammation levels. The study revealed that the HIGHER the vitamin D levels, the LOWER the CRP.
Since chronic inflammation is an underlying factor in everything from pain to asthma to heart disease, the inflammation-lowering effect of vitamin D also likely explains this next study…
You see, one of the WORST conditions that inflammation plays a role in is cancer.
And our second study shows that supplementing with vitamin D can help reduce the risk of dying from cancer.
The analysis of 10 controlled trials found that folks who supplemented with vitamin D daily had a 12 percent reduced risk of cancer mortality.
Those who received the MOST benefit were patients over 70 and those who took vitamin D before their cancer diagnosis.
Don’t guess your vitamin D levels. Have them tested, and then take steps to ensure they’re up to par.
P.S. Even if you’re loading up on all the D you think you could possibly need—whether it’s from the sun, diet, or supplements—you may STILL not get enough. Because scientists say they’ve pinpointed something that could be draining your D levels. CLICK HERE for the scoop.
