Vitamin D is a fat-soluble nutrient essential for calcium absorption, bone health, immune function, and muscle strength. Produced in the skin via sunlight exposure and found in limited foods (fatty fish, fortified products), it is often taken as a supplement (600–800 IU daily for most adults) to treat deficiencies that cause weak bones, such as rickets and osteomalacia.
