VITAMIN D, AND THE GUT
Emerging research suggests that vitamin D may influence the composition and diversity of the gut microbiome, which plays a crucial role in digestive health. A balanced gut microbiome is associated with better gut function and overall well-being.*
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in regulating the immune system. It can help modulate the immune response in the gut, which is essential for preventing and managing inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Vitamin D is known for its role in reducing the risk of respiratory infections, and it may also play a role in protecting the gut against infections and pathogens.*
