Vitamin D level often low in inflammatory bowel disease, liver disease

Vitamin D is a great regulator of the immune system as well as calcium metabolism.  It helps to regulate the feed forward mechanism of inflammation.  As a result, a deficiency of the vitamin is often seen in people with over active immune systems such as those with IBD

I take a Vitamin D supplement every day and it has made a big difference in my health. I have Ulcerative Colitis and am able to keep my symptoms at bay with the help of extra Vitamin D as well as a healthy diet and lifestyle.
