This infographic offers some information about Vitamin D and its benefits. The consistent color palette creates a visual aesthetic, and the visuals that accompany each point are aligned with the subject matter. The use of both photographs and icons can be disruptive to readers, though applying only one visual medium per section does help avoid significant confusion. The icons do connect to the broader topic at hand; however, the more cartoon-like illustration style limits the level of detail. This, along with the general approach to the icons, cause some nuance to be lost and could actually indicate the opposite of the content's intentions. On that note, the copy is brief and well sourced. The text itself could be structured a bit more consistently, and it also might benefit from emphasizing its data. However, the clean and clear script keeps a reader moving through the piece. Overall, this infographic has some helpful information — it just could benefit from some visual clarity. We'd give this a D.
