She Gets Her Vitamin D

Darcey gets her Vitamin D from the sun. "We each have vitamin D receptor cells that, through a chain of reactions starting with conversion of cholesterol in the skin, produce vitamin D3 when they're exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB) from the sun," says Yale Medicine dermatologist David J. Leffell, MD, chief of Dermatologic Surgery, to Yale Medicine.
