Up to 90 percent of the population have an inadequate intake of vitamin D and around 40 percent are deficient. Vitamin D, which works closely with magnesium, is a steroid hormone and is critical for proper immune function. It also helps support healthy inflammation levels and is important for supporting bone health, improving mood, reducing cancer risk, and reducing the severity of illnesses, including respiratory illnesses.
In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Elizabeth Boham and Max Lugavere about why your vitamin D level matters and how to increase it.
Dr. Elizabeth Boham is a physician and nutritionist who practices Functional Medicine at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox, MA. Through her practice and lecturing she has helped thousands of people achieve their goals of optimum health and wellness. She witnesses the power of nutrition every day in her practice and is committed to training other physicians to utilize nutrition in healing.
