Weakened immune system

If you’re a frequent cold-sufferer or if every germ that goes around strikes you down, look no further than your vitamin D levels.

Vitamin D is known to modulate your immune system, allowing it to respond to those germs and keep you from getting sick but when it’s lacking, your immune system is suppressed, increasing your susceptibility to infection.
