Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that helps the body absorb calcium and build stronger bones.

To ensure that you’re getting enough, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics advises:

• Get some sun, but avoid sunburn. The body naturally converts sunlight into vitamin D.
• Eat vitamin D-fortified foods, such as milk, cereals, and some forms of orange juice and cheese.
• Eat naturally vitamin D-rich foods, such as fatty fish, mushrooms, cheese, beef liver and egg yolks.
• Take a vitamin D supplement. Discuss with your doctor whether this is a good idea.
