Vitamin D and Pancreatic Cancer

Vitamin D may significantly cut the risk of pancreatic cancer, the results of a new study indicate.

Vitamin D is essential for good bone health as it helps the body to absorb calcium from food. It is found in the diet in foods like fish oils, fortified margarines and dairy products, while the rest is made by the skin from sunlight.
