An interviewer asked me recently why I take vitamin D all year round.
Living in Scotland, I originally started taking it because I always felt like I was allergic to winter!
These days, I take around 2,000 IU most of the year, backing off when I’m getting plenty of sunshine, and occasionally check my blood levels to make sure they’re in a healthy range.
Vitamin D plays an important role in bone, muscle and immune health, making it one of the few supplements I personally take consistently.
Do you take vitamin D all year, or just during autumn and winter?
