Vitamin D

The British government want us all to take Vitamin D supplements. Well anyone in at-risk groups. These are: "Current advice is only at risk groups - including pregnant women, under fives and over 65s - should take supplements." BBC News online I have seen at my local GP surgery the free prescriptions which have totted up for the vitamin. They must be expensive high dosages. They are available from supermarkets but it is worth considering the right dosage. Ask pharmacists as they are usually informative. When you get a good pharmacist, hold onto them for they are like gold dust! Vitamin D can also be found fish oils or by eating oily fish. But also some nuts. I have found out that almonds are a good source of vitamins. All I know is, in the UK, it is vital we take it because the amount of sunlight we receive is not always enough to keep this vitamin stored in our body.
