Why should I take extra vitamin D? Don't I get this from food and the sun?Updated 2 years ago

The main source of vitamin D is your own skin producing it under the influence of sunlight. You only get minimal amounts from your diet, which is not enough to maintain your vitamin D level. Are you pregnant, over 50 or do you have tinted skin? Or do you simply not get much sun? Then taking a vitamin D supplement throughout the year makes sense. Or is it mainly in the winter that you do not get enough sun? Then a vitamin D3 gummie is a great supplement for you in the autumn and winter months.
