Vitamin D

Vitamin D There are a good number of sources pointing toward Vitamin D as a vital resource needed by your body for optimal health. Many of these articles discuss deficiencies of this vitamin.

I feel fairly confident that this type of deficiency has never befallen me because I've always eaten healthy portions of mushrooms, many of which are known to be great sources of Vitamin D. There are even ways to boost the Vitamin D content of mushrooms before eating them, by placing them in sunlight before consumption. A good heap of research has been done to link Seasonal Affective Disorder to Vitamin D deficiency as well, which is yet another good reason to ensure that you are getting your proper dose of mushrooms.
