Are you getting enough vitamin D?

Taking your vitamin D supplements transdermally (via the skin) or as mouth sprays, means that most of the contents are absorbed quickly. These methods are also more convenient than tablets or capsules.

NHP Vitamin D3 Support, £12.97

Nutritionist Dr. Marilyn Glenville says, ‘We need exposure to sunlight within a specific UVB spectrum for the production of vitamin D through our skin and we struggle in the UK between October to March. If you can, get a liquid vitamin D3 and drop it under your tongue. It will go into the blood vessels under your tongue so it is absorbed quickly, rather than having to be digested if you take a capsule. I recommend NHP’s Vitamin D3 Support, £12.97, free of preservatives, sweeteners and is suitable for pregnant women, children and adults.
