A new study from researchers with Intermountain Health in Salt Lake City examined the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on people who previously had heart attacks.

The researchers did not give everyone the same vitamin D3 dosage but instead adjusted the amount based on the needs of each participant.

The researchers found that vitamin D3 may drastically reduced the risk of having a second heart attack.

Vitamin D is important for maintaining health and supports bone health, influences the immune system, and supports muscle and nerve functioning.

Researchers are taking a closer look at how vitamin D can impact heart health. While prior observational studies found low levels are associated with poor cardiovascular health, trial results were mixed.
