CONTENT AND LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Vitamin D is known to play a key role in maintaining skeletal health and protecting against the bone disease rickets. However, in recent years it has become apparent that low vitamin D levels are associated with a range of other human health issues. Notably, vitamin D has been closely linked to human immune responses and associated disorders. This webinar will clarify the mechanisms that explain this link between vitamin D and immunity.
It is the final webinar in our three-part Vitamin D Update Series.
WATCH THE WEBINAR TO
GAIN CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF:
- The mechanisms that link vitamin D with immune response
BE AWARE OF:
- The potential impact of vitamin D deficiency on immune disorders such as infectious and autoimmune diseases
BE ABLE TO:
- Place clinical observations and data in the context of vitamin D biology
