Scientists have proven the ability of vitamin D to improve a person's mental health.
Over the past decade, there have been many studies investigating the relationship between vitamin D and brain function. Scientists have established the existence of a number of receptors for vitamin D metabolites throughout the brain, indicating an important role for the vitamin in regulating cognitive skills and mood, reports med-heal.
In addition to the beneficial effect on the brain, vitamin D improves the health of the digestive tract by increasing the beneficial microflora and preserving the gastric mucosa.
In the course of recent studies, it was found that vitamin D has a positive effect on the mental and physiological state of a person, so people with a deficiency of this vitamin were more likely to have a bad mood than those who were not deficient in the vitamin.
