What Is Vitamin D?
This fat-soluble vitamin is also often called the ?sunshine vitamin?. Under the right circumstances our skin is able to synthesize Vitamin D from the UV rays from the sun. This can work well during the summer months, but can make it more challenging to get enough Vitamin D in the winter months. Vitamin D is also not naturally present in a lot of our foods, which means we are either consuming fortified foods or taking a supplement.
