First and foremost, thank you. Nursing student here, from Australia. What stands out for me is that you don't look like your reading this lecture, either you are a brilliant actor who learns their lines well, or you know what you're on about! I hope its the latter, subscribed! Best health to you all

🇨🇦Canadian Pharmacist here: Great presentation, excellent explanation, keep up the great work. Vitamin D deficiency is definitely common in Canada and it plays such an important role in the body. Many people in Canada are deficient but never get a chance to find out as testing is not covered in every province. Excellent content here. Very timely as well.

It's great to hear a doctor with outstanding nutritional knowledge. I have low vitamin D and CKD, I'm thinking they go hand-in-hand. COVID hit me harder than most. Supplements don't seem to help, trying to figure out which will. Thank you for the info, doc!

That was incredible! This has helped me study and revise for a nutrition exam. It was explained so well, and I feel like I am finally understanding the concept. Thank you so very much

Known as the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D is produced by the body in response to skin being exposed to sunlight. It is also occurs naturally in a few foods -- including some fish, fish liver oils, and egg yolks -- and in fortified dairy and grain products.👏
