Boosts NK Cell Function<\/b><\/p><p>Natural Killer (NK) Cells are the body\u2019s first line of defense against infected or abnormal cells. Vitamin D3 enhances Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) activity on NK Cells, improving their cancer-fighting ability. It also helps Regulatory T Cells (Tregs) prevent overactive immune responses.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><b>4.
