Deficiency of vitamins can provoke various kinds of diseases. In the summer, a large number of seasonal products are included in the diet of people, so there are no problems with a lack of important elements. However, in winter, many face this problem, despite the fact that they are contained in some of the products available all year round (chicken eggs, beef, fatty fish).
According to the popular British physician Chris van Tulleken, the main deficiency in winter is in vitamin D. This is due to the fact that its production in the body depends on exposure to sunlight. The lack of a biologically active substance causes problems with bones and reduces the effectiveness of the body’s immune system.
Scientists from Harvard conducted a new study, which proved the relationship between vitamin D and cancer. Observation of 25,000 people over 5 years allowed to collect the necessary scientific evidence. The experiment involved men over 50 years old and women over 55 years old. An important condition was the absence of cancer at the time of the start of the study.
Early in the study, it was shown that vitamin D and Omega-3, when consumed regularly, reduce the risk of death from cancer. Scientists have also noticed that the likelihood of developing invasive cancer is reduced by 17%. Vitamin D prevents the development of colon, breast, lung and blood cancers.
