Vitamin D is actually not a vitamin, it is a neuro hormone. The active form of Vitamin D is an extremely important nutrient concerning the function of our immune system. Many Doctor’s are reporting a widespread deficiency of Vitamin D among their patients, partly due to the avoidance of the sun and widespread use of sunscreen. When the sun strikes your bare skin (without sunscreen) it makes enormous quantities of D3 Cholecalciferol. You can make between 10,000-50,000 units of Cholecalciferol if you stay in the sun long enough for your skin to turn pink, about 15 minutes at high noon. However in the winter most people in the northern half of the United States are not out in the sun in the late fall and winter this is why Cod Liver oil is extremely important during this time. This is especially true for those individuals that have high melanin content in their skin because it naturally blocks the sun, limiting their ability to naturally produce Vitamin D.

Vitamin D has been noted to show influence over the following diseases:

·         Cancer-known to halt the growth of breast cancer tumors

·         Autism

·         Diabetes 1 & 2-Vitamin D is required by the pancreas to make and release insulin

·         Flu

·         Depression

·         Asthma

·         Multiple Sclerosis

·         Crohn’s Disease

·         Fertility

Another benefit of Cod Liver Oil is the Vitamin A. Deficiency in this nutrient can cause the following symptoms:

·         Reduced night vision

·         Dry Eyes

·         Rough and dry skin particularly on the backs of the arms and outside of the thighs,also referred to as Keratosis Pilaris.

·         Vulnerability to respiratory infections
