Webinar: Vitamin D – More Than Just Sunlight

Following on from her hugely popular talk last year on gut health, we are delighted to welcome back Dr Ese Stacey, Consultant in Sport and Exercise Medicine.


She has designed this lecture to discuss the importance of nutrition in MSK health, specifically on the importance of Vitamin D – who needs it, why, and how to ensure you are getting enough.


Vitamin D has been proven to play a role in muscle function and the immune system. It is therefore important for all-round health to ensure that we are getting enough – and yet Vitamin D deficiency is very common in the UK. Some estimates say that around 1 in 5 adults and 1 in 6 children do not get enough Vitamin D.

Dr Stacey introduces her topic

This event is available to purchase on-demand and was first delivered on Monday 4 May 2020. Once you've purchased the course, you can watch it immediately from your Oryon Develop dashboard by logging into your account.

Dr Stacey is a Consultant in Sport and Exercise Medicine who is especially interested in how your environment affects musculoskeletal health, performance and wellbeing. She has found that musculoskeletal conditions that do not respond to conventional treatment are often linked to poor gut health and increased levels of environmental toxins. She has a wealth of experience in this area and is interested in helping patients understand the importance of food and nutrition in all aspects of health.

A note from Dr Stacey:

Please note that after more than 30 years of medical practice, I have recently (April 2021) de-registered voluntarily from the General Medical Council (GMC). The reason for this is because my practice (advising and consulting about health - which involves giving advice about diet, your environment and mental/emotional/spiritual health) - falls outside what is required for me to be registered with the GMC. The practice of medicine essentially involves making diagnoses and treating disease with prescriptions or other interventions. My practice does not include this but has a focus on educating you so that you know how your body works in relation to food and the environment. I also help you to identify mental, emotional or spiritual blocks to recovery. I then encourage you to make appropriate changes yourself that will enhance your wellbeing. Of course, if you have a specific diagnosis that arises during our consultations and this diagnosis requires specific medical attention I will advise that you inform your GP or other specialist/s. I will also offer to write to your GP and of course, please do forward any correspondence with me to your GP if you so wish.
