Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin, helps absorb and utilise calcium and phosphorus, which is crucial for strong bones and teeth. Unlike other vitamins, Vitamin D is produced by the body when the skin is exposed to sunlight.

Does Vitamin D give more energy to kids?

Questions that concerned parents almost always ask are, “Does Vitamin D increase strength?” or ‘Is Vitamin D important for strong bones?” or “How Vitamin D can improve muscle strength? Or “How does Vitamin D affect muscles?” The status of Vitamin D in your kid’s body has a positive correlation with muscle strength and postural stability, mostobservational studies say. While Vitamin D is not directly related to providing energy in the form of calories, it plays a significant role in helping children maintain optimal energy levels. Adequate Vitamin D levels have been associated with improved well-being and reduced fatigue. It is believed to play a part in the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that affects mood and energy levels. Thus, it indirectly contributes to a child’s energy by helping regulate their overall mood and vitality.
