Sunshine contains the best and most efficiently absorbed vitamin D. A fair skinned person can make up to 20,000 IU's of Vitamin D in a half and hour with no risk of ever overdosing on vitamin D. Fatty fish and cod liver oil are the richest natural sources of vitamin d. Sun dried or UV light exposed mushrooms contain a surprising amount of vitamin D, up to 2500 IU's per serving. These are virtually the only significant natural vitamin D sources.
