Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that the body produces primarily through sun exposure. It can also be obtained through certain foods and, if necessary, through supervised supplementation.
In the body, active vitamin D regulates the balance of minerals essential for bone structure and maintenance. Without it, even a diet rich in calcium may not be sufficient.
🥗 Natural sources of vitamin D
You can naturally support your vitamin D levels with small changes to your routine:
☀️ Sun exposure
15 to 30 minutes of sunshine, a few times a week
preferably in the early morning
The ideal duration varies depending on skin color and region
🍽️ Foods rich in vitamin D
oily fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel)
egg yolk
fortified milk and dairy products
mushrooms exposed to UV
💡 Important tip: Combine vitamin D with calcium-rich foods, such as green vegetables, dairy products, and nuts, to maximize its benefits.
