Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that helps your body absorb calcium so you can maintain healthy bones and teeth. It also keeps your muscles, nerves and immune system functioning properly and may even lower your risk of disease. So how do you know if you’re getting enough? Or too much? According to the Registered Dietitians of Canada here’s what you should aim for includeing dietary & supplementary sources: Recommended vitamin D dosage by age: Infants aged 0-6 months: 400 I...U/day, stay below 1000 IU/day Infants aged 7-12 months: 400 IU/day, stay below 1500 IU/day Children aged 1-3 years: 600 IU/day, stay below 2500 IU/day Children aged 4-8 years: 600 IU/day, stay below 3000 IU/day Children & adults aged 9-70 years: 600 IU/day, stay below 4000 IU/day Adults aged 71 years & over: 800 IU/day, stay below 4000 IU/day Pregnant & breastfeeding women: 600 IU/day, stay below 4000 IU/day You may assume you’re getting enough vitamin D just from being out in the sun. And while it’s true your body can make vitamin D from sunlight, there are mitigating factors including age, skin tone, where you live and whether or not you’re wearing sunscreen. If you’re looking to receive your daily dose of vitamin D at the dinner table, your options are somewhat limited. Foods such as cow’s milk, fortified soy, rice, or orange juice beverages, fatty fish, margarine, egg yolks and some fortified yogurts do contain vitamin D. However, it may be difficult to reach the recommended amount, particularly if you have any dietary restrictions. To ensure you are getting enough vitamin D, you can add a good quality supplement (for kids or adults) to your daily routine. #CaringBeyondMedications #ShopLocal #SupportLocal #HealthyLiving #GibsonsBC #SunshineCoastBC #AskAPharmacist #PharmacyGibsonsBC #SoundAdvice #SoundCare #BetterCare #Pharmacy #Pharmacies #TuesdayTips #HealthAndWellness #Wellness #Sisu #NaturalHealth #Supplements #BoneHealth #VitaminD #ReleaseYourInnerStrength #SelfCare SISU Vitamins
