Vitamin D: The Sunshine Vitamin

Vitamin D is often referred to as the sunshine vitamin because our bodies can make it after sunlight or ultraviolet light touches our skin. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in our bodies, helps bring calcium and phosphorus to our bones and teeth, regulates how much calcium remains in our blood, plays a role in the strength of our immune system and helps regulate cell growth. No need to bake in the sun all day to reach your intake of vitamin D; many foods and beverages are also fortified to supply ample amounts of this important vitamin: some fatty fish such as tuna and salmon; most milk; and many types of orange juice, yogurt, cheeses, cereals, breads and soy drinks.
