The Vitamin You Need to Load Up On…Right Now!
- Gundry MD Team
Your body needs Vitamin D. You see, between low direct sun exposure (plus, use of sunscreen), poor nutrition in much of the foods that are available, and a number of other environmental factors… A large percentage of the U.S. population is currently deficient in Vitamin D.1 Vitamin D plays a key role in your immune system’s ability to function properly.2

•Vitamin D3 supplements are widely available…
Here are some things Vitamin D does:
It’s essential for keeping your bones strong as well. Your body can’t utilize calcium properly without it.3 And it’s also crucial for the health of your gut lining and your friendly gut bacteria.4,5 What all of this this means is, if you want to help your body defend itself against frequent illness, weakening bones, digestive problems, and dangerous leaky gut…
Vitamin D is one of your most powerful allies
And you don’t want this ally to be missing in action. That’s why supplementing Vitamin D is one of the first things Dr. Gundry recommends to his patients — and anyone else he gives health advice to. He recommend taking 5,000 IU (international units) of Vitamin D3 daily.
Vitamin D3 supplements are widely available…
How you get your Vitamin D3 is not important. What’s important is that you start adding it to your daily routine as soon as you can. This nutrient is essential for your health. And nowadays, it’s hard to get enough of it through eating and sunlight alone. And if you’re worried about getting too much Vitamin D, that will not happen with 5,000 IU daily. You’re much more likely to get too little of the supplement.
