Tucson, Ariz. — A recent study presented at the American Thoracic Society’s international conference shows that 35 percent of adolescents are deficient in vitamin D, and teens with low levels of vitamin D have poorer lung function than those with recommended amounts. Vitamin D is one of the easiest nutrients to acquire, and teens and adults can learn to naturally increase their levels of vitamin D in “The Healing Power of Sunlight and Vitamin D,” a free guide is available through Truth Publishing at http://www.truthpublishing.com/MichaelHolick.html
