Autoimmune diseases are becoming increasingly common, but what’s driving this trend?

Vitamin D’s most important role is helping regulate the immune system. Your immune system protects against viruses, fungi, yeast, bacteria, and abnormal cells, while also helping distinguish between healthy and unhealthy cells. Every major immune cell involved in this process depends on vitamin D.

Rather than simply creating a stronger immune system, vitamin D helps support normal immune function and a balanced immune response. Vitamin D is especially important for the immune cells in your gut, where a large portion of the body’s immune system resides.

Some people with adequate vitamin D levels still develop autoimmune diseases. Chronic stress is one factor that may influence immune function by increasing cortisol, which can suppress the immune system. Low vitamin D levels combined with chronic stress may further affect immune function.

Around 25% of people have vitamin D receptor resistance, which can affect how their bodies respond to vitamin D. This may help explain why some people require more vitamin D than others.
