Where Does Vitamin D Come From?

The Sun

Our bodies make vitamin D when our skin is expose to the sun. It’s hard to get enough vitamin D from the sun. Most kids and adults spend lots of time indoors at school and work. When outdoors, it’s important to protect skin to prevent melanoma and skin damage from too much sun exposure.

Food

Very few foods have vitamin D naturally. The foods with the most are fatty fish and fish oils. Kids don’t eat these foods a lot. That’s why food companies add vitamin D to milk, yogurt, baby formula, juice, cereal, and other foods.

Adding vitamin D to foods is call “fortifying.” It’s helpful, but it still may not be enough.

Supplements

To get enough vitamin D, children often need to take a multivitamin with vitamin D or a vitamin D supplement. Vitamin D is sometimes label as vitamin D3.
