Vitamin D Benefits for Women

Vitamin D is a prohormone as well as a vitamin, equally beneficial for every human being. But it affects women’s health differently. Vitamin D is essential in order to develop and maintain strong bones. This is because our body can only absorb calcium, which is the main building block of bones, in the presence of vitamin D. Vitamin D benefits the body by regulating several other biological processes in the body due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neuroprotective qualities.

How Vitamin D is Beneficial for Women?

Vitamin D benefits women in different ways. Here we will discuss the top 5 benefits of vitamin D for women.

Women’s bone health depends on the estrogen hormone. Decreased estrogen levels during menopause may lead to a significant drop in bone density as well.
