What is the relevance of taking a vitamin D supplement

Hello Sir,

This is very very good news! Indeed, one might ask why continue to take vitamin D when all other medications have been discontinued.

In fact, supplemental vitamin D helps keep bones strong by allowing the best absorption of calcium. At doses of more than 800 IU per day, vitamin D may also have an effect in the muscles and help reduce the risk of falling.

In Canada, our fall, winter and spring months don't allow enough sunlight to give us enough vitamin D, prompting Health Canada to recommend continuous vitamin D intake for all Canadians.

Tell me about it,
