Vitamin D is an indispensable assistant to calcium in building and maintaining strong bones. While calcium provides the structural foundation for bones, Vitamin D plays a crucial role in helping the body absorb calcium effectively. Without sufficient vitamin D, the body cannot absorb enough calcium from food, which can lead to weakened bones and an increased risk of fractures. Vitamin D also supports bone growth and remodeling by assisting calcium and phosphate regulation in the body. Together, they help maintain bone density and strength, making them essential for overall bone health.
