Vitamin D has been linked to a number of health benefits. It appears to be linked to higher fertility and a healthier pregnancy in women trying to conceive.
New Delhi: Vitamin D has received a lot of attention in recent years, and most people have heard of it. Vitamin D is also known as the "sunshine vitamin". It is produced in the skin as a result of sun exposure and can also be absorbed through food and supplements.
Most people, however, are unaware that their vitamin D levels may impair their fertility.
What exactly is vitamin D?
The most common type of vitamin D is cholecalciferol, which is found in the skin as well as some foods and supplements. The prescription form of vitamin D is vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol). According to one study, vitamin D3 is metabolised more efficiently than vitamin D2.
If we spend enough time in the sun, most of us can absorb all of the vitamin D we need. However, many women do not get enough sun exposure throughout the year to keep their vitamin D levels healthy. Because few foods are naturally high in vitamin D, getting enough of it through your diet may be difficult.
