Vitamin D:
What is it: A vitamin present in just a few foods (but added to some others) that's also produced when UV rays hit the skin. Why you need it: Essential to calcium absorption - without it, bones don't grow correctly and become thin, brittle, and easily broken. Also helps with the immune system and can reduce inflammation.
