Vitamin D comes from several places, and none of them is a gummy only. Here is a general overview for parents.

Sunlight

Skin makes vitamin D when exposed to sunlight. How much depends on season, skin tone and location, and sun protection matters too. Follow your pediatrician's guidance.

Food

Fortified milk and cereal, eggs and fatty fish are common sources. Check labels on fortified foods.

Supplements

Gummies and drops can add vitamin D. Punchies list 200IU per serving. Ask your pediatrician before adding any supplement. See Punchies protein gummies.
