Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Which foods are a good source of vitamin D?

A: The best source of vitamin D is sunlight. Vitamin D is formed under our skin when we are exposed to the sun.

Q: Why should one take vitamin D?

A: With the current lifestyle, we are all based indoors in air-conditioned offices, houses and cars with hardly any exposure to the sun. It can eventually lead to an increase in vitamin D deficiency in all age groups and more fractures and muscle weakness. There is a lot of research happening suggesting that vitamin D may have a role in preventing the onset of diabetes, cancers like colon, breast and helps build immunity.
