For your vitamin d deficiency , exposure to sunlight for20-30 minutes in the morning is ideal. You need to take calcirol or D-Rise 60000 iu weekly once for 15 weeks and calcium supplement daily. Milk and other dairy products,eggs fish and orange juice are rich sources of vitamin d.codliver oil has highest source of vitamin d.
