Are you getting enough Vitamin D?

Hopefully you get your annual physical exam with labs, and your doctor is checking your Vitamin D level.

How can you get Vitamin D?

• Drink milk.

• Eat foods that have vitamin D in them.

• Take a Vitamin D supplement (pill).

• Get some sun. Don’t forget the sunscreen. Here is our recommended vegan sunscreen, also.

(This last method is not recommended if you are taking or using a medicine that will cause photosensitivity – or sensitivity to sunlight – meaning you could burn much more easily while using that medicine.)

Have You Recently Lost Weight?

If you have recently lost quite a bit of weight, have your Vitamin D level rechecked.

Vitamin D is one of the 4 fat-soluble vitamins.

Which means it can go into our fat stores.

And when fat is released? So is the Vitamin D – back into the bloodstream.

You won’t want to keep taking a supplement if your doctor says your level is fine and there is no medical reason to take it.

As always, discuss this information with your doctor.
