Not everyone gets enough exposure to the sun to synthesize Vitamin D at sufficient levels. It depends on your skin type, where you live and what kind of lifestyle you live. It’s a good idea to monitor your blood for nutritional deficiencies, but not everyone does.
That’s not at all specific to veganism though. If your doctor prescribed you vitamin D obviously keep it up, just like if they prescribed you anything else. however vegans don’t need to supplement vitamin D any more than the next person.
You oversimplified something I felt was important and I elaborated on it. I guess I can only apologize that I wasn’t quite prepared for combative, condescending horseshit in my replies.
