In reply to Kenya. I know what you mean about it being too hot to check the mail! Sometimes I used to wait until evening to venture to the mailbox. But I'm glad that your vitamin D levels are on point.

Yummy salmon!

On my last physical, my Vitamin D was excellent. Over the past year I’ve started taking the supplement because it’s been low before. So now that I know the simple pill is working I’ll keep it. I know I don’t get much sun in the Winter and in the summer it’s hard to be out there and in it for more that 5 minutes. Somedays it’s too hot to check the mail.

Tamara, here’s what I just read: “Vitamin D is produced by the body when the skin is hit by UVB rays, with 7-dehydrocholesterol being the resulting chemical. But most glass windows block this wavelength, meaning you can’t reap the health benefits.” So it’s good that you’re eating vitamin-D-rich foods and taking supplements. Here’s to summer and all of its vitamin D benefits!

I always wonder if we can get it through windows.. because there’s not a lot of sunshine lately but we have a skylight that shines so brightly.
I actually eat foods with it and take supplements in the winter. In the spring and summer I don’t need to but I definitely do now!
