Recent research shows that Vitamin D—the "sunshine vitamin"—offers a multitude of benefits including supporting healthy heart function, immune and bone health. But, up to 80% of Americans may have insufficient levels of this essential nutrient. Supplemental vitamin D is clinically supported and proven to significantly raise blood levels of vitamin D.

Did You Know?
• Vitamin D is present in certain fish and fortified foods such as cow’s milk, orange juice, and breakfast cereals. However, it is difficult to get adequate amounts of vitamin D through diet alone.
• Due to insufficient exposure to sunlight, people who live farther from the equator have a greater risk of having insufficient vitamin D levels than those who live near it.
• Even weak sunscreens (SPF 8) can inhibit vitamin D production by up to 95%.
• The older you are, the more vitamin D you need. With age, your body becomes less efficient in converting vitamin D to a form it can use.
• People with darker skin are more susceptible to having insufficient vitamin D levels.
