data-start-time='169250' data-end-time='177167'>Factors in the environment may limit our exposure to sunlight and, therefore, Vitamin D. </span> <span data-start-time='177167' data-end-time='189229'>These factors include pollution, using too much sunscreen, spending too much time inside and living in areas with little sunlight.</span> <span data-start-time='189229' data-end-time='203375'>So, if you can’t get enough sunshine, eat foods that are rich in Vitamin D: egg yolks, cheese and fatty fish such as salmon, sardines, tuna or mackerel.</span> <span data-start-time='203375' data-end-time='210458'>Some foods such as orange juice, yogurt and cereals are fortified with Vitamin D.</span> <span data-start-time='210458' data-end-time='213688'>They are also good sources.</span> <span data-start-time='213688' data-end-time='219083'>How much Vitamin D you need is a debated topic.</span> <span data-start-time='219083' data-end-time='225917'>The best
