Depends: If salmon is wild: yes if is farmed raised may contain 1/4 of the vit d.

Question 2

can canned salmon have vitamin d in it?

Accepted Answer

Yes!: The amounts are modest: 130 iu per serving. I recommend 2000 iu per day.  A regular vitamin for daily use contains only 400 iu, as does one quart of milk.

Question 3

is it really the case that vitamin d helps you sleep?

No: Vitamin d has not effect on sleep patterns.

Question 4

does vitamin d supplementation really  reduce your risk of catching influenza?

Accepted Answer

I do not think so: But a flu shot does reduce your chance.

Question 5

Doubt it.: Would be unusual to be Vit D deficient in Boca Raton at age 19.  Secondly, VIt D deficiency does not usually lead to fatigue or weakness.

Question 6

how can you raise vitamin d level really need advice?

Accepted Answer

Sun exposure: Sun exposure, good diet and supplements if needed. Watch this video to learn a little more. http://otwithmd.com/vitamin-d/.

Question 7

are vitamin d supplements really good for you?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if deficient: Vit d deficiency is very common, the best explanation I have is that it is broken down by cadmium a pollutant that has become more prevalent since lead was taken out of gasoline in 1980.  Cadmium causes stress and inflammation.  If vit d deficiency is present  just taking vit d will not be enough. Menstruating women  need iron . Zinc and magnesium  are necessary  and a healthy life style.

Question 8

what causes sudden regular periods like clockwork? it was never really irregular just longer cycles which are not exact in days but still fairly the same days. does vitamin d have to do with anything because thats the only thing i can think of?

Accepted Answer

: Vitamin D is likely coincidental and is not affecting the schedule of your periods.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Question 9

what does vitamin d do?

Accepted Answer

To keep you healthy: Good for your general health.

Question 10

does vitamin d treat pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There actually is evidence that vitamin d can reduce inflammation directly, and can be used to alleviate pain. Since the general population is getting less vitamin d than optimal, there are many disorders that are being influenced and helped by vitamin d. It's not the silver bullet that will fix everything, but a daily 1000iu dose can only help.
