Egg yolks
Vitamin D is not exclusively found in fish. Another excellent source and incredibly nutritious food are whole eggs. The egg whites contain the majority of the protein, whereas the yolk contains the majority of the fat, vitamins, and minerals.
Even though a lot of people stay away from the yolk, due to its high-cholesterol levels, if you consume eggs in moderation, as part of a healthy and balanced diet, you are completely safe.
One large egg has 37 IU or 5% of the daily value of vitamin D in the yolk. However, scientists say that the quantity of vitamin D from the yolks is influenced by a few different things, such as:
- the vitamin D content of the chicken feed;
- the chicken’s exposure to sunlight;
- the exposure of the liquid yolk to UV light.
When given the same nutrition, hens grown on pasture and allowed to wander outside in the sunlight lay eggs with levels that are 3 to 4 times higher in this much-needed nutrient.

Boron is taken by bodybuilders to strengthen bones. 10mg per day.
I inadvertently was taking too much D3, ended up with heart ‘irregularities’.
Cardiologist pointed out that I was OD’ing on D3. After I dialed it back the problem went away.
If you take 5000 IU D3 a day before a blood sugar test the results are masked and the test need to be redone to read
How much D3 is recommended?
I take 10,000 IU’s daily. My routine Lipid and Metobolic bloodwork tests have not shown any concerning “effect”.
