Answer 1

The answer is vitamin D. This is actually a group of vitamins of similar molecular structure responsible for facilitating increased absorption of calcium, magnesium and phosphate from the gut. The most important of the vitamin D compounds are vitamin D3 and D2. While vitamin D can be obtained from your diet and supplements, the major source of vitamin D is from a chemical reaction dependent on skin exposure to the sun.
