Vitamin D

Vitamin D enhances calcium absorption in the body, protects bones and also prevent bone diseases like osteoporosis. People resort to vitamin D supplements because it is very difficult to get the correct amount only from food.

But just as anything else that is bad for us when it’s excessive, taking too many vitamin D supplements can be harmful. For healthy people, vitamin D blood levels higher than 100 nanograms per milliliter can activate extra calcium absorption and lead to muscle pain, abdominal pain, kidney stone and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

To achieve a healthy amount of vitamin D, it is recommended to alternate supplements with food that is rich in this vitamin.
