I don't have the time for hours of daily sunbathing, nor do I live in a place where that's even an option during the winter.  I think I'm better off taking my softgel than I would be using a tanning bed.

You can get all your vitamin d from raw foods ... the vitamin d from supplements is nowhere near as effective as raw food

I tried that. It didn't work.  I used to eat tons of shrimp, but that didn't get the job done. Besides, I'm allergic to shrimp now.  I average about 3000-5000 IU daily of D-3.  I don't know of many foods that have that much Vitamin D-3.

Eat a herring a day for 5000 IU

What is your source for that? Nutritiondata claims just 460 IUs (http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/finfish-and-shellfish-products/4065/2).

Looks like I am overeating the herring if 1oz is the normal serving size Smiley. You were looking Vitamin D content of 1oz serving size. Change it to 1 fillet 184g. 1 Fillet has 3000IU make it a whole herring you get 6000IU add liver and you might get a lot more I think. Let me know if I was wrong.

    I tried at the WF fish counter by me yesterday.  They didn't have it.  Maybe I'll try the fish area a farmer's market.  I don't think there are any fish mongers around here (you can tell I don't live on the water).  I know a place to get salted herrings (certainly not an Inuit type food) around here, but I did try one and it had kind of a rotten taste that I suppose people who eat mostly cooked fish can't taste.  Herring must come from Europe and in the US you'd probably have to be in NY to get it somewhat fresh.
