It’s a Vitamin D Awareness Week so I decided to team up with BetterYou to give you a chance of winning their vitamin D testing kit which you can use for checking your vitamin D levels at home. An estimated 1 in 5 adults and 1 in 6 children in the UK are thought to be low in vitamin D. Are you one of them?
It’s really important to know your vitamin D levels so that you can stay healthy and reduce the risk of developing certain illnesses. Vitamin D is important for a healthy immune system and a long-term deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of cancer and heart disease. So if you’ve never got yourself tested, you really should. You may be deficient and you don’t even know it! NHS don’t routinely test for vitamin D deficiency so your best bet is to buy the test yourself and do it at home. Or you can win it here, of course!
Vitamin D is also important for healthy bones and for the prevention of osteoporosis. It even helps to reduce depression and can boost weight loss. So it’s definitely not something to ignore. It never hurts to be informed, just so that you can be healthier.
To win the vitamin D test kit from BetterYou fill in the Rafflecopter widget below (use all the options to give yourself better chances). The giveaway is open to UK residents only and it ends on Sunday, 4th November. Good luck!
