Vitamin D is important to get from our foods.
In the spring and summer we normally make vitamin D by exposing our skin to sunlight. But in the winter, and if we're gamers, we tend to stay indoors much more staring at the computer monitor. Fatty fish like salmon are a good source of vitamin D, and so are egg yolks. So try egg salad sandwiches or canned salmon with a glass of milk after a long day on the hill. As we've said, bone building is important.
