The following is from my post on depression: If the amount of daylight you have been exposed to recently has reduced, perhaps due to the change of seasons, see Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.) in section 2, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris and, instead of taking around 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily; replace 2 of them with cod liver oil supplements for the winter months only! (or, as probably a better alternative to the 2 cod liver oil supplements: 1 teaspoonful of cod liver oil, with a little butter, to ensure it is utilised; I take mine on sourdough rye bread, or toast, covered with fishpaste, and pepper, to mask the strong taste). Optimal levels are 50 - 55 ng/ml (115 - 125 nmol / L). It should be above 32 ng/ml.
Don't use medications and supplements together, without medical advice, except for Omega 3, which is safe, anytime. Take enough supplements to attain, or exceed the levels (no possibility of overdose) of those every day, with an orange, or the juice of a freshly squeezed orange, grapefruit, or other antioxidant.
(make sure the epa is higher then the dha) important for adults... kids need the opposite levels: more dha than epa, but all are beneficial, if you can't achieve the recommended proportions.
Consider having your doctor test your vitamin D levels, using the 25 Hydroxyvitamin D test. Those people who receive adequate exposure to sunlight, daily, won't need the vitamin D from cod liver oil, but many people, particularly those in latitudes far from the equator, find this difficult to achieve. 60% of depressed people have low vitamin D levels. Your levels of vitamin D are probably low: see TAMIN D3.

What is the difference between natural vitamin d and synthetic vitamin d pills?
Your question depends upon what kind of natural vitamin D you are talking about and what kind of vitamin D pills you are talking about. There are two kinds of natural Vitamin D. 1)Sunshine is the best and most efficient way to get your Vitamin D. If you are fair skinned, you can make up to 20,000 IU of Vitamin D in one half hour of full body exposure. A feedback loop prevents you from EVER overdosing on Vitamin D from sunshine. 2) Natural Vitamin D is present in only a few foods - fatty fish and sun exposed mushrooms being the only real significant sources. There is no real difference between natural food source vitamin D and synthetic pills. The only difference is that it would be next to impossible to overdose on food sourced vitamin D. The answer to the question of synthetic Vitamin D pills, is that there are 2 kinds. Vitamin D2 is the most common kind, and the only kind found in prescription Vitamin D pills and shots. Some researchers claim that Vitamin D2 should not be used for supplementation or enrichment of foods due to its decreased potentcy. Vitamin D3 is less common in supplements, but is absorbed much better and has a longer half-life, making it the clear winner for human supplementation
