Get Vitamin D As Much As You Can

Vitamin D is also known as “THE SUNSHINE” vitamin and it is essential for healthy bones, muscles, and teeth. We can get vitamin D from the sun, but find out how to get enough without risking sun damage on your skin.

Vitamin D helps the body absorb the minerals: calcium and phosphate. As an adult, to avoid bone pain and tenderness you must take vitamin D in your life. Go out and feel the sunlight because your body creates vitamin D on your skin direct from sunlight.

WHAT IF YOU DON’T LIKE THE SUNLIGHT FROM THE SUN?

Well don’t worry, in that case, you can take vitamin D from food. For example oily fish like salmon, herring, mackerel, or maybe red meat or even eggs.

WHEN TO AVOID THE SUN?

We suggest you avoid the sun, especially from 11 am to 3 pm at summer when it is 30 degrees or higher. Or if you really must to go out and be there for a long time apply at least SPF 15 sunscreen.

SEROTONIN

The sunlight has effects of serotonin that goes through the eyes, which cues areas in the retina, which releases serotonin.

LOW VITAMIN D LEVELS

Well, low vitamin D and diseases like osteoporosis and osteomalacia… what should we know about that? We should know that this type of levels has been linked to rickets in children and bone-wasting and diseases like these two that we mentioned before.

VITAMIN D BENEFITS – CANCER PREVENTION

• colon cancer
• pancreatic cancer
• Hodgkin’s lymphoma

This is a list of diseases that can be healed with vitamin D.

Also, we should know the negative effects of sunlight if we are the most of the time outside. For example, sunlight can contribute to skin cancers. So you should be careful.

Be brave! 

Take care.
