Vitamin D: Take vitamin d with physician supervision for your bone health. Low vitamin d has been preliminarily linked to other medical problems as well so it is better to be safe than sorry. Get more sunshine if possible. 30 minutes three times a week.

Vitamin D Deficiency: Vitamin d is essential for keeping the calcium in the bones to strengthen it. If there is vitamin d deficiency, bone loss in the form of osteoporosis can be expected. Vit d is also essential for overall cardiovascular (heart/blood vessel) health so, supplementing with vit. D is essential.
