Assuming you're asking how much vitamin D does a person living in Jamaica need, the answer would be the same as a person living anywhere else. The difference is that they likely will be getting enough of it from the synthesis of the sun. People ages 19-50 years should get 5 mcg a day, ages 51-70 should get 10 mcg a day, and over 70 should get 15 mcg a day.
