1. 5 Tips for
Boosting
Vitamin D
Levels

2. Is it a Vitamin or
a Hormone?
It’s actually both!
Not only do we get
vitamin D from our
diets, but our bodies
produce it when
our skin is exposed
to sunlight.

3. Vitamin D is key
because it:
- Helps prevent
osteoporosis
- Helps brain
development
- Reduces pain
sensitivity
- Reduces
inflammation
- Stimulates
immunity

4. A surplus of vitamin D is produced by our bodies during summer
and stored in our fat cells for release during winter.
However, these reserves are only good for 1-2 months –
which makes supplementation essential for good health.

5. Here are
5 Easy Ways
to Boost
Vitamin D
Levels

6. #1
15 minutes daily
of whole body
exposure. But
don’t overdo it –
more sun does
not mean more
vitamin D.

7. #2
Eat foods that
contain vitamin D:
- Fatty fish –
tuna & salmon
- Cheese
- Egg yolks
- Mushrooms

8. #3
Eat foods fortified
with vitamin D:

- Orange juice
- Cereals
- Oatmeal

9. #4
Take a vitamin D
supplement –
1000-4000IU
daily to maintain
optimal levels

10. #5
Give yourself 15
minutes in front
of a vitamin D
light during dark
winter months

11. Test your vitamin D level twice a year.
We recommend ZRT’s vitamin D test
in dried blood spot.
