Vitamin D is often talked about like it’s just about bones. But in cancer care, and especially after treatment, vitamin D is doing quiet, foundational work across multiple systems that influence cancer recurrence risk.

In this episode of The Flourish After Cancer Podcast, Dr. Megan breaks down what vitamin D is actually doing in the body, why deficiency is so common after cancer, and how this often-overlooked nutrient supports immune balance, inflammation regulation, cell signaling, and hormonal health after treatment.
