One study states that Northern folks who get a lot of sun in the summer will get enough vitamin D to carry them over the winter.

Personally, there’s no question how much I need vitamin D. I don’t take supplements in the summer - a few days without sun and I’m not feeling so good. A good afternoon in the sun and it’s all reversed. Supplements in the winter is a must.

What I've discovered about this is...confusing. I've read that vitamin D can be stored, by an adult, for four months, with a half-life of eight weeks. In fat cells, that is.

So how much vitamin D is circulating in the blood when obtained from fat stores? Not that much, as far as I can tell.

I know only what I read here and there so your info may be as good as mine.
