If we can get vitamin D from sunlight - why would you also need a supplement? 🤨
Our skin's ability to convert sunlight to vitamin D and our ability to absorb dietary vitamin D reduces over time. Vitamin D deficiency is more common than you might think!
Most Canadians should take a supplement containing at least 400 IU of vitamin D daily if they are not eating foods like: eggs (yolk) soft margarine fatty fish, such as salmon, arctic char and rainbow trout unsweetened lower fat milk unsweetened fortified plant-based beverages Those especially at risk are older populations and dark-skinned people who need some extra time in the sun, but don't get it.
