Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Many people cannot drink dairy due to lactose intolerance or milk allergy. Vitamin D also comes from fish or other animal products and many people do not eat enough of these foods to get active Vitamin D. People are not outside as much as they used to be so they tend to have less vitamin D produced through their skin.
