Vitamin D is the most essential supplement for the winter season!
Vitamin D & Winter Season
Vitamin D is not only a regulator of bone and metal metabolism but also a powerful immunomodulator. It regulates the homeostasis of calcium and phosphorus, as well as the proliferation and differentiation of cells while playing a key role in the reactions of the immune and nervous systems.
It is scientifically proven that T cells need vitamin D in order to be activated, while if they do not find enough, they will not be able to complete the process of activating the immune system!
Vitamin D mainly affects the maturation of dendritic cells and the differentiation of macrophages, as well as reduces the production of cytokines.
Recent studies have shown the current effects of vitamin D which include:
• xenobiotics detoxification
• oxidative stress reduction
• neuroprotective functions
• antimicrobial defense
• immunomodulatory action
• anti-inflammatory effects
