Part II: Vitamin D, Calcium & The Mineral We’re Missing
from Eat Heal Farm · host Heathar Shepard
In Part II, we shift the conversation to two nutrients that are deeply interconnected—and often misunderstood: vitamin D and calcium.While vitamin D gets most of the spotlight, calcium may be one of the most overlooked deficiencies in the modern diet. Heathar explores how these two nutrients work together in the body, why balance matters more than megadosing, and how imbalances can quietly impact everything from mood and bone health to metabolism and body composition.Heathar also walks you through how to interpret your vitamin D lab values in a more meaningful way, and what it actually looks like to support healthy levels of both nutrients through food, sunlight, and optimal thyroid function.If you’ve been told to “just take more vitamin D,” this episode offers a more complete—and more grounded—approach.If you’re ready to move beyond theory and actually work on these issues, I offer deeper guidance and step-by-step support on the Eat Heal Farm Substack.
