Vitamin D deficiency is more common than you think and It plays a critical role in women’s hormones, metabolism, inflammation, insulin sensitivity, aging, and overall wellness. In this episode of Polished Beauty, Dr. Daisy Ayim takes a deeper dive into the relationship between vitamin D, women’s hormones, metabolism, menopause, PMOS(formerly PCOS), insulin resistance. This science-backed conversation explores how vitamin D functions more like a hormone than a traditional vitamin — influencing ovarian function, mood, metabolic health, muscle preservation, inflammation, and longevity. A thoughtful conversation about how one overlooked deficiency can quietly impact nearly every system in the body and the effects on women's hormones.
