THE HORMONE-VITAMIN FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS Also known as the 'Sunshine Vitamin', vitamin D is normally produced by our bodies after exposure to sunlight. Recent research however shows that insufficient vitamin D is produced in this way, especially as most people now stay out of the sun or apply sun block which dramatically reduces vitamin D production. Vitamin D3 has become the superstar nutrient, since Vitamin D-deficiency is a major health risk in many different categories that range from osteoporosis, heart disease, arthritis to mental health and diabetes.
