Vitamin d helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body. These nutrients are needed to keep bones, teeth and muscles healthy. From about late march/early april to the end of september, most people should be able to make all the vitamin d they need from sunlight. The body creates vitamin d from direct sunlight on the skin when outdoors.

But between october and early march we do not make enough vitamin d from sunlight. During the autumn and winter, you need to get vitamin d from your diet because the sun is not strong enough for the body to make vitamin d. But since it's difficult for people to get enough vitamin d from food alone, everyone (including pregnant and breastfeeding women) should consider taking a supplement of vitamin d during the autumn and winter.

Between late march/early april to the end of september, most people can make all the vitamin d they need through sunlight on their skin and from a balanced diet. Low levels of vitamin d are associated with depression, seasonal affective disorder, and schizophrenia.

Fat-soluble vitamins can build up in the body and are not as easily excreted as water-soluble vitamins. For this reason you can only receive a maximum of 3 vitamin d injections over a 12 month period, with at least 3 months between each treatment.
