As more people avoid sun exposure, Vitamin D supplementation becomes even more necessary to ensure that your body receives an adequate supply.Vitamin D is normally produced in the skin as a result of exposure to UV light from the sun. However, the use of sunscreens, aging avoidance of sun exposure, and living in the northern latitudes can significantly reduce vitamin D production by the body. Vitamin D can also be obtained through the diet and some sources include fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified dairy products.
