Public Health England recommends taking vitamin D supplements as lockdown continues – Gulf Today
Public Health England (PHE) has recommended the use of vitamin D supplements during lockdown because people are spending more time indoors and have less exposure to sunlight as a result.. Health experts have now advised people to take 10 micrograms of the vitamin a day to ensure healthy bones and muscles.. Vitamin D supplements are advised during the autumn and winter to make up for the reduced levels of sunlight..
