BUT HOW TO FILL THIS LACK WHICH SEEMS TO CONCERN A LARGE PART OF US?

For that, let's first look at its origins, where does this miracle vitamin come from?

1.Vitamin D is produced by our body

Good news, or almost! This vitamin is produced by our body itself, at the level of the skin, when we are exposed to the sun.

It is therefore recommended to expose yourself to the sun (face, hands and forearms) for 10 to 15 minutes, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., two to three times a week.

Unfortunately, we are not all equal and do not all benefit from the same weather conditions depending on the city where we live.

People living in cities where the sun is scarce, as well as the elderly, orpeople working at night, who do not go out much during the day must be particularly vigilant not to lack vitamin d and therefore must pay particular attention to their intake from food, the second source of vitamin d.

2.Vitamin D is found in food

What foods should you eat?

• Cod liver oil
• Canned cod liver
• Combined oil (mixture of 4 oils) enriched with vitamin D
• Smoked or grilled herring
• Fried mackerel or grilled sardines
• Cooked salmon
• Natural canned tuna
• Cot cheese or natural yoghurt enriched with vitamin D
• Cooked hake
• Cooked veal liver
• Emmental
• Egg
• Cooked roast veal
• Camembert, Livarot, cheese from the Pyrenees
• Butter
• Cooked heifer's liver
• Cooked Pork Chop
• Milk fortified with vitamin D
