Hi All,
I don't get much sun exposure because I wear sunscreen daily and avoid exposure when possible (to protect my skin from photoaging). I also live in a Northern climate where there isn't much sun yearly.
I am concerned that this may lead to a Vitamin D deficiency and would like to supplement but have no clue where to start. I read through one of the Vit D threads on here but was lost in the terminology. I did pick up that gel caps are generally more effective.
Can anyone give me some advice on where to order Vit D supplements online and which is the most effective? Also, how much would be best for me to start with daily. I'm 25, Caucasian, f, 115 lbs.
Also, how do I get tested and do most insurances cover testing? If not what's the typical price range?
Thanks!
