Vitamin D deficiency pops up again and again, particularly among her female clients, saysHillary Cecere, RD.Dr.
Out of 100 patients, Id say 80 are significantly deficient, she says.
Its why she suggests a solution that actually doesnt have to do with diet at all: going outside.
Sensible sun exposure, about 15 minutes, is important for vitamin D absorption, she says.
(Yes, you should still wear sunscreen.)
That said, there are foods that will help you reach your vitamin D goals.
This is one deficiency where its definitely possible to fill the gap without supplements.
