Everything You Need to Know About Vitamin D – The Happy Menopause Podcast

Season 4 • Episode 2
Andrew Thomas, CEO & Founder of Better You

Vitamin D is a non-negotiable for our health and wellbeing at any age, but never more so than in mid and later life which is why I’ve decided to shine a light on it in this episode. I’ve invited Andrew Thomas, founder of one my favourite supplement companies Better You to chat to me about all things vitamin D.

He’s just the man we need to help us understand the ins and outs of this hormone-like vitamin. Andrew has been on quite a journey, from a chance encounter at a rodeo, which led him to found Better You to winning the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in 2021.

The level of research into Vitamin D has expanded considerably in recent years and, in this episode, we explore the broad role that it plays in supporting your health and wellbeing, such as bone health, mental health and immune function, including reducing the severity and longevity of Covid-19 symptoms. Andrew explains what Vitamin D is; why we need it; why we might be deficient and typical signs of that; how the body produces it and what sort of supplement dosage is appropriate.

This is a really practical and helpful episode that should answer any questions you have about Vitamin D, especially as we slide into the autumn and winter when a supplement is more important than ever.
