The major biologic function of vitamin D is to maintain normal levels of calcium and phosphorus in the blood. It helps in the absorption of calcium, encouraging the formation and maintenance of healthy bones. Increases bone mineralization in combination with several other vitamins, minerals, and hormones.

Without vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, soft and shapeless. This feature prevents skeletal diseases such as rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults which cause defects and weaken bones.
