### Why do people take vitamin D in autumn and winter?
Vitamin D is made in the skin when it is exposed to the sun's UV rays, and a diet alone can make it hard to get enough. In the UK, it is often recommended to top up with vitamin D, especially in the winter months when sunlight does not trigger production.
### Does vitamin D help with anything else?
Vitamin D plays a role in the process of cell division. It also helps to reduce the risk of falling associated with postural instability and muscle weakness. Falling is a risk factor for bone fractures among men and women 60 years of age and older.
### How much vitamin D is it safe to take in a day?
The NHS says children from 1 year and adults need 10 micrograms of vitamin D a day. One Nature's Aid Vitamin D3 1000iu tablet contains 25µg. The NHS advises not to take more than 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) of vitamin D a day from all sources, as it could be harmful. Check the vitamin D content of any other supplements you take.
