    oh and just have Oprah on and Dr OZ said something that reminded me -
    Vit D can also be found naturally in tinned oily fish. So sardines on toast is a good thing to have for lunch a few times a week ... bit of salt and pepper -its not that bad

    ooh At uni the other day the lecturer went on and on about this! He was saying its really good to get about 3-4 hours a week of sunlight .. you need calcium as well.

    After 20mins of sun exposure the Vit D production is of no benefit (it gets degraded). Egg yolks, salmon, sardines and tuna have Vit D too - not sure how tempting those smelly fish are too little people tho! I think Physical milk has extra Vit D too....may be worth a look.
