This is really a great video on vitamin D.  Dr Oz explains why it is so important to get enough vitamin D each day and what the best way is to get it. 
  • The best source of vitamin D is the sun
  • However, during the winter months, those living north of the 35th latitude have a much harder time getting any from the sun
  • Eating enough fatty fish or drinking fortified milk is not the best way
  • Dr. Oz recommends taking a vitamin D supplement of at least 1000 IU along with a daily multivitamin
  • Get your vitamin d blood level tested before and after to monitor results and adjust dosage as needed
