Summary

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that functions as a hormone precursor, supporting calcium absorption, bone mineralization, and immune modulation. It is commonly supplemented to address insufficiency, especially in people with limited sun exposure. Dosing is often guided by blood levels, and very high intakes can lead to hypercalcemia, so it needs to be used thoughtfully.
