Guest guest Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Tracie (Tiodaat@...) has sent you a link to the following page on ScienceDaily: Vitamin D crucial to activating immune defenses http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/03/100307215534.htm Scientists have found that vitamin D is crucial to activating our immune defenses and that without sufficient intake of the vitamin - the killer cells of the immune system -- T cells -- will not be able to react to and fight off serious infections in the body. The research team found that T cells first search for vitamin D in order to activate and if they cannot find enough of it will not complete the activation process. * Note: the sender's email address has not been verified.
