Vitamin A helps to maintain healthy respiratory and digestive tract linings which are the first line of defence against infection. It also supports a healthy immune system. Vitamin-D is essential for the optimal uptake of Calcium from the intestine into the blood and helps maintain normal blood and bone levels of Calcium.
