Welcome to the site:

Rather than give you a whole lot of splurge, here is a link to an excellent website
http://www.michaelvanstraten.com/index.html     when you get there, click on Vitamens and Minerals and there on the bottom right click on Vitamin D.

All your Vitamin D orientated questions should be answered.

Best Wishes
