[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to echo the above loudly for those saying milk isn’t necessary:

Yes, milk isn’t necessary however VITAMIN D IS NECESSARY.

I’ve only found one brand of whole milk yogurt that adds vitamin d to their kids yogurt (Stonyfield) and they don’t add an adequate amount.  Two cups of milk gives a child adequate vitamin d.  [/quote]

Soy milk
Free range egg yolks
Cheerios 
Fortified orange juice
Vitamin d gummies
Cod liver oil
Sunlight [/quote]

You’re wrong about sunlight, PP.  especially for darker complexions.  And my soy milk doesn’t have vitamin d.  Plus D is better absorbed with fat like milk rather than OJ.

Never gummies for toddlers!! The drops aren’t that bad or get a liquid multi vitamin with D.  [/quote]

Um, no I am not wrong about the sunlight thing. And you can just have the OJ with other fat, though I think a supplement would be superior. Really the best I think is cod liver oil.

I’m not just making this stuff up, my daughter had terrible reactions to milk and I spoke with my pediatrician about vitamin D. It really wasn’t a big deal.
