Vitamin D could be the next surprise and effective weapon against cancer, according to a study by scientists in the health sector, says a Fox News report. According to the study, a study on mice which included feeding them vitamin D rich diet could help increase immunity against cancer symptoms. Vitamin D changes the gut microbiome in order enhance effective cancer immunity and increases levels of the bacterium Bacteroides fragilis that depicts an improvement in cancer immune response, according to Economic Times.

Vitamin D rich diet not only helps in cancer immunity, but is also good for overall health, finds study

The study of mice that received vitamin D showed improved responses to cancer immunotherapy and curbs the chances of new tumor development, claim scientists at the Francis Crick Institute in based in UK. The research also includes researchers from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) of the NIH, alongside Aalborg University in Denmark.

Although scientists are still unsure how Vitamin D is playing habitat to a positive microbiome but the results yielded till now on mice sheds some light on it.

Vitamin D-based research can yield some effective results

Although cancer is a complex disease with different kinds of evasion, Vitamin D can help in improving the immune system and help in destroying cancer cells. Moreover, some more research on this may help in developing some effective and targeted treatment using this new findings at hand.

A1. According to a new research, Vitamin D has been found to help in increase cancer immunity and stop the development of cancer cells.

Q2. On what did scientists experiment regarding Vitamin D and it's relation to cancer immunity?

A2. According to reports, a Vitamin D rich diet was fed to a group of mice which ultimately showed immunity against cancer related symptoms.
