Description
Vitamin D can be found in small amounts in some foods, including fatty fish such as herring, horse, sardines, and tuna. To make vitamin D more available, it is added to dairy products, juices, and cereals that are said to be "fortified with vitamin D." But most of your vitamin D - 80% to 90% of what your body gets - is obtained through exposure to sunlight. Vitamin D can also be made in the laboratory as a medicine. Vitamin D is used for the prevention and treatment of redfish, a disease caused by a lack of enough vitamin D (vitamin D deficiency). Vitamin D is also used to treat weak bones (osteoporosis), bone pain (osteomalacia), bone loss in people with a condition called hyperparathyroidism, and an inherited disease (osteogenesis imperfecta) in which the bones are especially brittle and break easily. It is also used to prevent falls and fractures in people at risk for osteoporosis, and to prevent low loss of calcium and bone (renal osteodystrophy) in people with kidney failure.
