In continuing with the theme of Health and Wellness from several years ago, we decided to emphasize in this poster the role that Vitamin D plays in maintaining good health. In particular we describe sources of foods rich in Vitamin D, its mechanism of action and chemistry, such as functional groups present and synthesis.
