Lallemand informs dietitians about vitamin D during British Dietetic Association Conference | News content from New Hope 360
Summer sunlight is the best source of Vitamin D, but diet takes on an increasing importance during winter at latitudes greater than 40°N or S due to the unavailability of UVB radiation of sufficient strength to stimulate dermal synthesis of the vitamin. Unfortunately, there are very few dietary sources of Vitamin D in UK, with oily fish being the richest source of the nutrient. Other dietary sources include eggs, meat and fortified products such as margarine, reduced fat spreads and some breakfast cereals.
