and Muscle Comfort
Vitamin D is sometimes called the sunshine vitamin.
Your body produces it when sunlight touches the skin. It is also found in certain foods and supplements.
But why does it matter for hips and legs?
Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, a mineral essential for maintaining strong bones. Without enough vitamin D, calcium may not be used efficiently.
Several studies published in nutrition and aging journals suggest that low vitamin D levels are associated with
• Reduced bone density
• Muscle weakness
• Greater risk of stiffness or discomfort
