It shows up as important because it means you're well enough to go outside and be active. In other words, it's mostly correlation. The question is: is _all_ of it correlation or is there actually something else there too?
- CuriousCosmic 3y agoThere's definitely something else there because it's been shown to improve things for people at extreme latitudes during their respective winters. But supplements are probably not necessary for most people in regions where you can get at least some access to sunlight every few days. So while there is a decent bit of established evidence from more extreme environments that Vitamin D is important, there's only now really been enough research covering whether a supplement is necessary for people who can source it through "normal" pathways.
