According to the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health: “Worldwide, an estimated 1 billion people have inadequate levels of vitamin D in their blood.” (1)

So why is vitamin D important?

Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, one of the most important minerals for bone health (2). Deficiency can cause diseases such as osteoporosis or rickets. It can also negatively impact your nerves, muscles and your immune system.
In fact, a common symptom of vitamin D deficiency is joint and back pain. Left untreated, this can lead to the development of arthritis and weaken bones.
