联合王国的国民保健制度现在建议,所有一至四岁的儿童,不仅在冬季,而且全年、每天得到维生素D补充,以支持健康的骨骼和肌肉发育。 The UK's NHS now recommends that all children aged one to four receive a daily vitamin D supplement year-round, not just in winter, to support healthy bone and muscle development. 以许多儿童光靠阳光或饮食得不到足够的维他命D为依据, 不论户外活动或肤色如何, The advice, based on evidence that many children don’t get enough vitamin D from sunlight or diet alone, applies regardless of outdoor activity or skin tone. 国民保健制度强调,持续补充有助于防止与骨痛、肌肉虚弱和骨折风险增加有关的缺陷,并且是安全、有效和低成本的。 The NHS stresses that consistent supplementation helps prevent deficiencies linked to bone pain, muscle weakness, and increased fracture risk, and is safe, effective, and low-cost. 虽然建议成年人在10月至3月期间服用维生素D,但这一年龄组的儿童全年每天需要摄取。 While adults are advised to take vitamin D from October to March, children in this age group need daily intake throughout the year.
