Clinical Benefit:
Vitamin D is a pro-hormone that has long been known for its important role in regulating bone mineralization. Moreover, in recent years, Vitamin D has become an assay of general health status, and there have been multiple publications linking Vitamin D deficiency to several disease states, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and autoimmune diseases.
