Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I would suggest you take Dvion 60,000 IU sachets once a week for 8 weeks. Mix it well in water. If you can walking outside in sun for half an hour between 11 am and 3 pm will help in vitamin D3 production.

I hope this answered your query.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

You can find vitamin D in cheese, fatty fish such as salmon, egg yolks and mushrooms. You can take 1 tsp of cod liver oil. You can also include vitamin D fortified cereals and milk in your diet.

The best way to get vitamin D is to go out in sun bare skin without sunscreen atleast twice a week for half an hour.

I hope this answered your query.
