As per renowned medical practitioners from best hospitals in Varanasi, if the body does not receive enough vitamin D, many health issues start to develop in an individual, such as bone diseases (osteomalacia and osteoporosis), depression, and even cancer.

Getting sufficient vitamin D has become more difficult right now due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the onset of monsoon season in Varanasi. Still, there are some ways through which you can get enough vitamin D to meet your body requirements.

Eggs
Eggs are an excellent food source of this vitamin. Consume boiled eggs along with their yolks to get the maximum benefit.

Mushrooms
