In this video, I have talked about Fat soluble vitamins and disease and function related to it.
This can be helpful in competitive examinations and this is also very important for competitive examinations.

Recent study related with COVID-19 and VITMIN D. (via medscape)

A study published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism found that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels were lower in hospitalized COVID-19 patients compared with population-based controls.

These findings come after separate research found that patients hospitalized with COVID-19 who had sufficient vitamin D levels had significant reductions in severe outcomes and a lower risk for death. Yet another study found that individuals in the US with sufficient vitamin D levels had as much as a 54% reduced risk of becoming infected with COVID-19.

Still, the exact nature of the relationship between vitamin D levels and COVID-19 remains unclear. There is little evidence that supplementation does much to prevent disease or control severity. However, a small randomized trial recently found that vitamin D may have helped reduce ICU admission among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 from 50% to 2%.

Researchers caution that vitamin D has not been established as clearly protective against contracting COVID-19 or preventing severe disease course. However, there remains the possibility that a readily available supplement with few known significant adverse effects may be beneficial.
