I'm wondering what exactly the difference is between beans, lentils, grains, nuts, and seeds. For example, what's the botanical difference between black beans, green lentils, rice, almonds, and sunflower seeds?
1 Always take your vitamin D supplements with or right after you have eaten a meal. The food in your system will help your body to process this nutrient.  It doesnât seem to matter what meal you take your supplement with. The time of day does not appear to affect your bodyâs ability to absorb vitamin D.
Vitamin D is made when UV-B rays strike the skin. One general recommendation has been to have 20 minutes of sun exposure to face, arms, leg or back twice a week during the most intense times for sun exposure (i.e., 10:00 AM through 3:00 PM). Alas, the amount of Vitamin D that can be obtained this way can be limited by several factors.
