We’re exposed to toxins when we take a deep breath, nibble a bite of food, or just go about our day-to-day activities.

A growing body of evidence supports the link between vitamin D and cancer prevention.
Research shows that adequate amounts of the “sunshine vitamin” help reduce the risk of colorectal, breast, and prostate cancers.
Vitamin D gets its nickname because people produce the substance after bare skin is exposed to the sun’s ultraviolet radiation.
Rushing out to sunbathe isn’t the answer, though: too much time in the sun—even 10 minutes a day—can increase the risk of skin cancer.
It’s not fully understood how vitamin D diminishes cancer risk, but it is thought the substance promotes cellular differentiation and decreases cancer cell growth.
