Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be manufactured in your skin upon exposure to sunlight. Foods rich in Vitamin D:
Eggs
Dairy
Oily Fish
It is difficult to achieve sufficient levels of Vitamin D by your diet alone. Believe me .....I know this too well . Last year I went to get my Vitamin D levels checked and was told they were low.
Vitamin D aids calcium absorption for healthy bones and helps the body maintain a strong immune defence. Studies have also shown that optimal levels of this vitamin appear to protect and improve viral respiratory tract infections. It has been shown that low levels of Vitamin D are linked to higher levels of both viral and bacterial infection.
Now let's talk about what dosage of Vitamin D you should be taking daily.
After reading various sources it is recommended that daily smaller doses of Vitamin D appear to be more effective than single large doses. In order to prevent respiratory tract infections for children it is recommended that children take 400-1000 IU ( 10-25mcg) per day. Those people who were deficient in Vitamin D experienced the greatest benefit by taking 1000-2000IU (25mg to 50mg) every day . Consistency is key!
