Tuberculosis gets thwarted by vitamin D?

Are you a regular taker of vitamin D? If so, you may be thwarting tuberculosis without even knowing it. A new round of research concluded that vitamin D actually helped the body boost its own ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria, which causes the disease.

While there are numerous reasons to ensure you receive the right amount of vitamin D every day, this is yet another one, and especially if you are in an environment where you may be exposed to TB (like in a medical facility).

Need a great way to get that vitamin D naturally? Try being in the sun for 10 or 15 minutes each day and let your body do the rest!
