Detailed explanation-1: -Vitamin D is the sunshine vitamin that has been produced on this earth for more than 500 million years. During exposure to sunlight 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin absorbs UV B radiation and is converted to previtamin D3 which in turn isomerizes into vitamin D3.
Detailed explanation-2: -The best sources are the flesh of fatty fish and fish liver oils. Smaller amounts are found in egg yolks, cheese, and beef liver. Certain mushrooms contain some vitamin D2; in addition some commercially sold mushrooms contain higher amounts of D2 due to intentionally being exposed to high amounts of ultraviolet light.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sun exposure is the most important natural source of vitamin D and I would say 10-15 minutes in the early morning sun, when its UVB rays are most intense, should do the job. You could step into your balcony, terrace, garden, the neighbourhood park or any spot outdoors, with your upper and lower limbs uncovered.
