My name is Diarmuid Herlihy. I am a pharmacist. I own Staywell Clonminch Pharmacy in Tullamore, Co Offaly.
I’ve been asked by Offaly libraries to prepare this talk on Vitamin D. It is part of the “Healthy Ireland at your Library” programme, which is part of the Library’s Healthy Ireland initiative.
1.. Vitamin D – What is it? What does it do?
2. Why has Vitamin D deficiency become a problem in Ireland
3. Sources of Vitamin D
4. Why is it in the news recently – Trinity College TILDA study and links to fighting Covid 19
5. Vitamin D recommendations for infants in Ireland
