They stated that it improved their overall health, and they felt better. They had an improved sense of control over their health. They said these types of interventions created an easier way to cope with their health problems.

Correcting Baton Rouge vitamin D deficiency increases the immune system to ward off disease and even depression. 

TIP OF THE MONTH: Take Vitamin D

A healthy body counts on a healthy, well-functioning immune system. Vitamin D plays a beneficial role in supporting a health immune system and aids combat challenges to it. Air pollution is a challenge as it can trigger undue immune responses: infection, cancer, auto-immune conditions. Inhaled air pollution usually settles on respiratory mucosa and has an effect on the respiratory system. (The news is filled with talk about the respiratory system today.) Vitamin D supplementation is one strategy research suggests may boost the immune system to fight such invasion. (3) Vitamin D is reportedly beneficial to improve and keep clinical depression at bay due to its homeostatic, immunomodulatory and neuroprotective roles. (4) Many from government, research and industry around the world are very aware that vitamin D deficiency is an extensive problem. All are seeking for ways to deal with it and answer the questions “How much vitamin D should I take a day?” and “How best do we make sure everyone gets that?” (5) Let us discuss this at your next chiropractic visit and make a plan to boost your vitamin D level and allow your body to fight health-compromising challenges.
