Why Vitamin D? While there are so many benefits to vitamin d, in this video I wanted to showcase the science on the benefits and how it can reduce the risk of severe respiratory illness.
Also, we thought it was so cool that England decided to offer free vitamin d for their Covid patients. If they can do it, so can we!! We have a heart for our community and want to provide a solution or at the very least, a helping hand! So if you live in Clarksville TN, tested positive for Covid, and you can’t afford to purchase our Vitamin D supplement we will give it to you for FREE! Just call our office at 931-591-2010 and our staff will assist you.
