Health experts, including the National Health Service, remind people to maintain healthy levels of Vitamin D
—especially during autumn and winter when sunlight is limited. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, supporting strong bones, teeth, and muscles.
While foods like oily fish, eggs, and fortified cereals contain some vitamin D, many people may still need supplements during darker months. However, experts warn that taking too much can cause symptoms like nausea, fatigue, muscle cramps, or increased thirst.
Health guidance suggests most adults should not exceed 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) daily unless advised by a doctor. Staying within safe limits and consulting a healthcare professional can help ensure vitamin D supports your health safely during winter. 🌤️💊
