Slowly the media is beginning to report the benefits of taking Vitamin D.
The best source is from the sun, but if you live in the temperate zones (latitude 37 degrees north and south of the equator) you will not get the sun exposure required for our bodies to make the 15,000 to 20,000iu of Vitamin D it needs each day.

I take a Vitamin D3 supplement daily – Each tablet contains 1000iu and I take 2 daily and increase to 4 in the winter months. My daily multi’s and Omega-3 also contain another 2000iu.
This helps to keep me healthy (along with eating good quality food).
We cannot get enough Vitamin D3 from the food that we eat, which is why I recommend taking Vitamin D3 supplements plus good quality multi’s.
