Vitamin D is fat soluble. Outdoor-raised animals produce vitamin D and store it in their fat. Eating fatty meat from outdoor-raised animals provides vitamin D.

- partyboat1586 6y agoThe trouble is most animals are not raised outdoors. You need to find a good source to get a decent price on grass fed beef/lamb.
- scubadude 6y agoAgreed. My opinion is that we need to eat less, higher quality meat. Don't get fried chicken for a snack, cook a pasture raised chicken roast and use the leftovers. Better for us and improves animal welfare. This still might not provide adequate vitamin D. But I think the demonization of fat is part of the Vitamin D problem.
- cavisne 6y agoFatty fish like salmon or canned sardines are a relatively expensive but easy to obtain source.
