Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin, is known as the “sunshine” vitamin because we can make it in the body when ultraviolet B (UVB) rays from sunlight hit the skin. Vitamin D exerts its effects by binding to a protein called the vitamin D receptor. This receptor is present in nearly every cell of the body and affects many different body processes.
We also get vitamin D directly from foods, but it is generally difficult to obtain adequate levels from foods alone. Foods with good levels of vitamin D include oily fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel), beef liver, cheese, egg yolks and mushrooms. We typically obtain only about 10% to 20% of our vitamin D from foods.
