Explained in plain English

Who needs supplements all year?

The new advice specifies that certain groups should take vitamin D supplements throughout the entire year. This includes infants consuming less than 500ml of formula daily, as formula often contains added vitamin D, and children aged between one and four. This ensures these vulnerable groups consistently receive adequate levels for healthy development.
