#253: What Does Vitamin D Even DO?

The BibRave Podcast

We’re stoked to bring you another episode of The BibRave Podcast! Today we’re welcoming back Dr. David Harmon (aka Cholesterol Dave from past episodes) to talk all about Vitamin D!

Dr. Dave gives Tim & Jess the scoop on this essential micronutrient, including the history of Vitamin D and how it’s detected and measured. They also dive into the function Vitamin D serves – why do we need it, what happens when we are deficient, and how do we make sure we get enough of this bomb vitamin (🐟🍳😉).
